The Nurse Midwifery DNP program prepares you to assess and manage women’s health issues at the highest level.
Program Overview
At Rutgers School of Nursing, we prepare nurse midwives to manage the primary, obstetric, and gynecologic care of essentially healthy women across the life span and healthy newborns in a variety of settings.
We also prepare you to promote the health, safety, and welfare of families within the primary care environment.

My experience as a student in this program was great. . . the program directors are always available to help you and guide you.
