BUFFALO, N.Y. -- The University at Buffalo School of Management is partnering with the UB School of Nursing and the UB School of Public Health and Health Professions to offer a master’s degree in Nursing Leadership in Health Care Systems beginning this summer.

The new MS program will educate baccalaureate-prepared registered nurses for middle- and upper-level management positions in a variety of health care systems and settings.

“Today’s health care settings require nurse managers to take on expanding roles in management to promote innovative change and quality outcomes,” says Marsha Lewis, dean, UB School of Nursing. “As a leader in nursing education, the school has taken up the challenge to provide a program of study to meet the needs of a complex and ever-changing health care environment.”
