IWU Doctor of Nursing Practice program prepares nurses at the highest level of leadership, scholarship, and character to be world changers in global healthcare systems. The program is based on the understanding that nurses provide services, which include the direct care of individual clients, management of care for populations, administration of nursing systems, and development and implementation of health policy.

Indiana Wesleyan University has been offering online educational options for nearly two decades. The doctoral programs build on this history to offer the programs and include three residencies in each program (and for the APRN health assessment course) to provide connection and build skills needed by all nursing leaders.
