University of Tampa recently issued the following announcement.
The University of Tampa Sykes College of Business’ part-time MBA and UT’s master’s degree in nursing were named as two of the best programs in the country in the 2023 edition
of “Best Graduate Schools” by U.S. News & World Report.
UT’s master’s degree in nursing (MSN) program was ranked 118 out of 200 programs nationwide.
To be included in the ranking, schools were required to offer master’s programs accredited by either the Commission on Collegiate Nursing Education or the Accreditation
Commission for Education in Nursing. The rankings are based on quality assessment, research activity, faculty resources, student selectivity and master’s program size.
UT has offered the Master of Science in Nursing and four-year Bachelor of Science in Nursing programs for many years. Typically, 100% of UT’s nursing graduates pass the
National Council Licensure Examination for Registered Nurses (NCLEX-RN) on the first try. The pass rate of UT’s MSN nurse practitioner (NP) students taking NP National
Certification Exams is typically 98%. The National Certification Exam is required by the State of Florida for licensure as Advanced Practice Registered Nurses (APRN) nurse
practitioners.
UT’s additional health science programs include a doctoral degree in nursing practice (DNP), physician assistant medicine, allied health, athletic training, and graduate exercise
and nutrition science.
The nursing program is housed in the new 91,000-square-foot Graduate and Health Studies Building, which includes simulation labs, a digital anatomy lab, and all the latest health
technology and equipment.
UT’s part-time MBA program was ranked 131, tied with Texas State University, University of Nebraska-Omaha and University of Tennessee-Knoxville.
U.S. News’s graduate business rankings are based on peer and recruiter assessments, student selectivity, acceptance rates and placement success.
Within an 80,000-square-foot facility, the Sykes College of Business offers state-of-the-art resources such as the Huizenga Family Foundation Trading Center and more than 1,300
data ports and Wi-Fi for high-speed access. It is also home to the Center for Ethics, TECO Energy Center for Leadership, Naimoli Institute for Business Strategy, Lowth
Entrepreneurship Center, Institute for Sales Excellence and the Florida Directors’ Institute.
