Nurse practitioner jobs are projected to grow 35 percent over the next decade, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics. As demand increases, nurses with doctoral preparation will be essential to advancing evidence-informed care and improving access for patients and communities.

The UB School of Nursing offers DNP programs in family, adult-gerontology, psychiatric and mental health, and nurse anesthesia, as well as an MS to DNP track for certified NPs in several specialty areas. These pathways support clinicians who want to gain deeper knowledge, strengthen their clinical decision-making, and move into roles where they can influence care delivery.

Our Emergency Student Fund has helped nursing students stay in school by covering critical needs like rent, emergency car repairs, food, and unexpected moves. Even a small gift reduces the burden of these unplanned expenses and helps students stay enrolled, focused and moving toward becoming the nurses our communities rely on.

Your support today goes directly to students who need it most. http://ms.spr.ly/6186tjV6o

One year ago tomorrow, three of our traditional bachelor's students witnessed an instant classic at Highmark Stadium when the won at home in the snow. We're not sure if these 2025 grads from our traditional bachelor's program took this photo before or after Josh Allen's legendary pylon dive, but we suspect it might've been after. GO BILLS and GO BULLS!
