Looking at the MSN Bridge Pathway

Today, many registered nurses are furthering their education and career by earning an MSN. If you’re an experienced RN who has a non-nursing bachelor’s degree, then you may benefit from earning a Master of Science in Nursing (MSN). Through the College of Nursing and Health Care Professions, Grand Canyon University offers the MSN bridge. This allows students to complete a set of foundational nursing courses and then enter the MSN program.

Upper-Division Subject Matter

As a student in the MSN bridge pathway, you will take seven pre-requisite courses toward your MSN program of study that consist of upper-division classes in nursing. As you complete this pathway, you will learn how to conduct research for the healthcare and nursing industry; enhance patient outcomes through pathophysiology and assessment; and innovate methods of prevention, treatment and intervention for diverse populations. While completing this pathway, you will also learn how to assess learning needs, create and implement a curriculum and evaluate student achievements in varied settings.
