description (exactly as it will appear in the
catalog, including prerequisites):
Justification:
The academic
justification for deleting the MSN 6140 Nursing
Leadership: Conceptual Basis of Professional
Socialization course is grounded in the MSN
Program's need to add an advanced nursing theory
course to its curriculum. (Following the MSN
Program's 2008 National League for Nursing
Accreditation candidacy review, the NLNAC encouraged
the faculty to include advanced nursing theory
content and learning outcomes.) As it is not an
option to add three additional credits to the MSN
Program length, the MSN faculty elected to delete
the existing MSN 6140 course and replace it with an
new advanced nursing theory course. The MSN faculty
were able to logically integrate the MSN 6140 core
concepts into two existing MSN courses.
