Mission

The mission of the Graduate Programs of Nurse Anesthesia (GPNA) is to teach and contribute to the science and practice of anesthesia at the master’s and doctoral level by placing strong emphasis on academics for all students and rigorous clinical training for entry-level students. We strive to foster an environment where student learning is encouraged and actively supported. We aim to graduate individuals with a strong working knowledge of the health care environment and who are highly qualified anesthesia providers.
