In addition, an accelerated option will be offered in the registered nurse to bachelor&rsquo;s degree in nursing program (RN to BSN).&nbsp;<br \/>\n&nbsp;<br \/>\nApplications are being accepted now.&nbsp;<br \/>\n&nbsp;<br \/>\n&#8220;There is a critical nursing shortage facing the U.S.,&#8221; said Juliann Sebastian, PhD, dean of the UNMC College of Nursing. &#8220;Nebraska is projected to have a shortage of 4,000 nurses over the next few years. This tremendous need requires creative approaches for expanding educational opportunities for nurses.&#8221;&nbsp;<br \/>\n&nbsp;<br \/>\nAccording to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, the job outlook for nurses is expected to grow by 15%, which is much faster than average.&nbsp;<br \/>\n&nbsp;<br \/>\nThe new Advanced Nurse Generalist Master&rsquo;s Degree in Nursing, which begins in the fall, is a new specialty track is for nurses looking to advance their skills and knowledge but are not seeking nurse practitioner certification.&nbsp;<br \/>\n&nbsp;<br \/>\nThe 39-credit hour program, which will be offered primarily online, will include a clinical practicum in the students&rsquo; specialty clinical area with a preceptor.&nbsp;Short immersion experiences will be scheduled throughout on College of Nursing campuses.&nbsp;&nbsp;<br \/>\n&nbsp;<br \/>\nCurriculum includes health care economics and policy, care coordination and organizational improvement.&nbsp;<br \/>\n&nbsp;<br \/>\n&#8220;This master&rsquo;s program is ideal for nurses, particularly those in hospital or other direct patient care settings, who want to solve problems to enhance patient outcomes or seek leadership opportunities,&#8221; said Missy Ofe Fleck, PhD, director of the program.&nbsp;<br \/>\n<strong>&nbsp;<\/strong><br \/>\nThe second new program offered is &#8220;Nursing in the U.S. Context,&#8221; an undergraduate certificate beginning this May.&nbsp;&nbsp;<br \/>\n&nbsp;<br \/>\nThe goal of the program is to better prepare internationally educated nurses for practice in the U.S. and for exams necessary to make them eligible for RN licensure.&nbsp;An active RN license in the U.S. also is a prerequisite for applying to post-licensure programs such as the RN to BSN and master&rsquo;s and doctoral programs.&nbsp;&nbsp;<br \/>\n&nbsp;<br \/>\nThe program consists of a minimum of 12 undergraduate credit hours of coursework, clinical simulation and some hours in a clinical setting completed over two semesters. The curriculum provides an understanding of nursing and health care in the U.S., professionalism, communication roles and responsibilities, as well as practicing medical English.&nbsp;&nbsp;<br \/>\n&nbsp;<br \/>\nThe college also will offer an eight-week option for the online RN to BSN program in addition to its current 16-week RN to BSN online program.&nbsp;The new option was added to increase flexibility for nurses who would prefer shorter courses.&nbsp;<br \/>\n&nbsp;<br \/>\nThe program, which is for registered nurses with an associate&rsquo;s degree in nursing or a diploma in nursing,&nbsp;is offered by the University of Nebraska through NU Online.&nbsp;&nbsp;<br \/>\n&nbsp;<br \/>\nMore information about the programs can be found online at&nbsp;<a
