, Dear DNP Student:
Welcome to the Marjorie K. Unterberg School of Nursing and Health Studies (MKUSONHS) at Monmouth
University. The school was named in honor of Marjorie K. Unterberg, a longtime advocate for nursing.
Mrs. Unterberg provided support to the Monmouth University nursing program for many years prior to her
death. In this DNP student handbook, you will find information you should know as a nursing student at
Monmouth University. It is intended to supplement the Monmouth University Graduate Catalog and the
University Student Handbook. The information in this handbook is specific to the DNP Program and is
designed for use through your journey at Monmouth University. You are expected to be familiar with its
content and to abide by the rules and regulations that it contains.
The Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP) is a 36 credit post-master's degree program that focuses on
organizational/systems leadership in which Monmouth University students gain the skills necessary to
influence and improve healthcare infrastructure and outcomes for individuals or populations. Students
may take 12 optional nursing education electives.
If, at any time, you have either comments or questions regarding the nursing programs, courses,
expectations, etc., feel free to discuss with your Academic Advisor or the DNP Director. Please email for
an appointment. I wish you much success in your educational and professional endeavors.
Sincerely,
Janet Mahoney, RN, Ph.D., APN-C, NEA-BC
