The Post Master’s Nurse Practitioner Graduate Diploma is designed for Master of Science in Nursing graduates who wish to pursue nurse practitioner preparation for the role of the NP.

The nurse practitioner (family/all ages) and post-master’s nurse practitioner graduate diploma options prepare nurses at an advanced level to practice as nurse practitioners (NPs). NPs work in a variety of settings such as in acute care, community clinics, emergency departments, out-patient clinics, family-physicians’ offices, long-term care facilities and remote nursing stations.

The major thrust of the NP options is to build on a foundation of graduate nursing education. The role of the NP in advanced nursing practice is grounded in knowledge of theory and expanded practice skills in areas of advanced clinical decision-making, research, consultation, collaboration, and leadership. Nurse practitioners have advanced knowledge and decision-making skills in health assessment, diagnosis, and health care management of common and complex conditions.

I’m really glad I chose the Engineering program at Memorial University of Newfoundland. It’s challenging but rewarding, with a great balance of theory and paid co-op work terms that give you real experience before you graduate.

The professors are knowledgeable, and there’s a strong community feel in labs and projects. It’s a respected, accredited program, and while it’s demanding, it’s absolutely worth it if you’re serious about becoming an engineer.
