Curriculum
Students learn in a stimulating and challenging environment at the USU Graduate School of Nursing.
Courses are taught by military and civilian professors, many of whom are international authorities in the fields of nursing and science.
Our renowned USU faculty share their knowledge and skills in the classroom, clinic, and in the field environment to prepare outstanding nurses dedicated to careers in the uniformed services and the federal health care system.
The GSN students — comprised of Army, Navy, Air Force and Public Health Service officers as well as nurses working in a variety of federal health agencies — are pursuing excellence in graduate nursing education through one of the School's four master's programs or its Ph.D. program.

Navy Lieutenant Commander Pamela Wall, director of USU's Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner program, recently spoke at a Joining Forces event held at the University of Pennsylvania, where she is working toward a Doctor of Philosophy.
"The Joining Forces initiative is important, because it provides America's nurses with the education, information and sensitivity they need to recognize and treat conditions that are unique to military and veteran populations," said Wall, who was hand-selected by the dean of Penn's nursing school to talk about her nurse corps experiences.
At the event, Wall also introduced first lady Michelle Obama, another Joining Forces guest speaker, who called nurses the "frontline of America's healthcare."
