The Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP) program at San José State University began its independent operations in Fall of 2019, and has been supporting our students toward innovative, evidence-based thinking ever since.

You are invited to join us for a live, virtual presentation as our current cohort presents and defends the culmination of two years of hard work!

Come for the whole, or just part of the day - any way you are able to attend, come for healthcare innovation and inspiration by extraordinary doctoral candidates.
