View Award Description

Nurse Faculty Loan Program - The goal of the project is to increase the number of qualified nurse educators by funding Master's of Science in Nursing (MSN) and Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP) students at the University of Mobile who intend to work in academia. The University of Mobile prepares students as nurse educators through the Nurse Educator Certificate program, which is completed synchronously with the primary MSN and/or DNP degree the student chooses. The Nurse Educator Certificate prepares future nurse faculty in course and curriculum development, testing and evaluation, and pedagogy. Additionally, students who complete the program will be qualified to sit for the National League for Nursing (NLN) Certified Nurse Educator (CNE) Examination. The COVID-19 pandemic continues to impact graduate nursing enrollment due to the high demand and inflated compensation of bedside nurses. After receiving the Nurse Faculty Loan Program (NFLP) grant award last year, the University was able to recruit students into the Doctor of Nursing Practice cohort beginning in fall 2023 and provide funding for MSN level students who are committed to pursuing doctoral education and roles in academia post-graduation. Graduate student enrollment currently includes 29 students. The 3 new-entry doctoral students we accepted in the fall all committed to the University of Mobile based on our having received the NFLP grant. The UMSON is confident that with the increased opportunity to publicize the award this year, the University will be able to further increase enrollment and award additional funds to support graduate nursing students who wish to enter into academic roles. All graduate nursing programs offered by the University of Mobile are online and asynchronous and accessible to students in rural and under-served areas. Graduate programs are fully accredited by the Commission on Collegiate Nursing Education (CCNE). Measurable Objectives 1) Increase the number of MSN and DNP students seeking Nurse Educator Certification.2) Increase the number of MSN and DNP graduates who obtain faculty positions following graduation. 3)Increase enrollment and retention of minority and disadvantaged students in the graduate programs. 4) Increase the number of MSN and DNP graduates who intend to work in rural and under-served areas as Nurse Educators. 5) Increase the number of future nurse educators that are equipped to address SDOH in both academic and clinical settings 6) Increase CQI processes to improve outcomes of UM nursing program.
