Graduates of the MS Care Management program will provide care management to patients of all ages using interdisciplinary and collaborative approaches.
Thesis/Non-Thesis Requirements
Each candidate must pass a final examination to demonstrate mastery of the fundamental principles of the work included in the course of study offered for the degree. This requirement may be fulfilled by completion of NURSE 8990 Practice Inquiry. In this course, students will demonstrate a culmination of knowledge and skills learned throughout the MS program. Students must successfully complete a critical review of the literature in an integrative review format on a healthcare topic of their choice related to their area of study. The MS Examination is the final course product comprised of the comprehensive oral presentation that assists in evaluating the paper process and students meeting program outcomes.
Admissions
Applicants are required to meet two sets of minimum qualifications for admission: the requirements of the MS in Care Management program and the minimum requirements of the Graduate School. Because requirements vary, you must refer to a degree program’s graduate admission page to learn about specific admission criteria, application deadlines, eligibility and application process. Before official admissions to the University of Missouri, your application materials will be reviewed by both the Graduate School and the degree program to which you've applied.
Due to higher education regulation changes, the University of Missouri is unable to accept applications for admission to online programs from students residing in various states. You may find more information at this link: https://online.missouri.edu/about/state-authorization/.
