School of Nursing and Health Studies to be split into two separate colleges
Georgetown University President John DeGioia announced on Dec. 7 the School of Nursing and Health Studies (NHS) will be split into two different schools, the Georgetown School of Nursing (GSN) and the Georgetown School of Health (GSH). In a university-wide announcement, DeGioia indicated that this division will be formally implemented by July 2022.
The NHS is currently home to all of Georgetown’s health science programs: Global Health, Healthcare Management & Policy, Human Science, and Nursing. DeGioia’s letter stated that the creation of these two distinct schools will allow for new potential to be unlocked in these disciplines as Georgetown continues to expand its commitment to health sciences.
