Introducing the Nursing and Healthcare Simulation Graduate Program
The first and only program of its kind in Florida
Today health care professionals are increasingly using simulation and technology to advance the field and improve patient care – and the future applications are limitless. In fact, a recent national study published in the Journal of Nursing Regulation found that simulation can be substituted for clinical experience in up to half of all prelicensure core nursing courses, and other health care disciplines are rapidly adopting this practice as well. With this field rapidly evolving, there is growing demand for health care simulation experts.
This online program brings together interdisciplinary teams of health care educators, practitioners, computer scientists and engineers to develop and use cutting-edge applications for simulation, training and practice to advance health care.
- Develop skills for leading health care simulation programs in the areas of education, team training and quality improvement
- Learn best practices and proven, evidence-based tactics of manikin-based simulation
- Master how to evaluate and measure the effectiveness of simulation programs in the field
- Access world-class facilities, from conventional low/medium/high-fidelity simulators to unique virtual reality-based ‘humans’ and scenarios that offer unprecedented human appearance, behavior and overall experiences.
Two options available:
Master’s degree in nursing (MSN)
