A&M-Texarkana to Offer New Master’s Degree in Nursing
Texas A&M University-Texarkana is proud to announce they will be launching a new Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP) program in the fall of 2021. The university’s new master’s degree in nursing has recently been approved by the Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board and the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools Commission on Colleges, the regional body for the accreditation of degree-granting higher education institutions in the southern states.
The new degree program is one of only a handful of PMHNP programs in the state. “It’s a program that is in high demand,” said TAMUT’s Director of Nursing Dr. Heather McKnight. “Graduates can work in a variety of settings, including hospitals, private clinics, and state agencies.”
