At Mass General Brigham University of Health Professions, healthcare is our singular area of focus—integrating classroom learning with research and clinical experience. Our Bachelor of Science in Nursing (ABSN) & Direct-Entry Master of Science in Nursing (DEN) programs are designed for individuals who hold a non-nursing Bachelor’s degree and want to enter the field of nursing.   Both programs prepare you to take the National Council Licensure Examination (NCLEX). Our 2023 NCLEX Pass Rate averaged 97%. **ABSN** - Students experience clinical rotations at Mass General Hospital, and graduates frequently land a job within the Mass General Brigham system. - Choose between full- or part-time options and earn your degree in just 12 or 24-months **DEN** - During your first three semesters in our DEN-Masters program, you'll take prelicensure nursing courses and build foundational knowledge necessary for passing the NCLEX-RN licensing exam. - After the third semester, you can then work part-time as a registered nurse, gaining valuable clinical experience while completing the requirements to become a nurse practitioner. ### Take your first step ![An icon of one larger figure with their arms around two smaller figures, symbolizing guidance or mentorship](https://info.mghihp.edu/hs-fs/hubfs/IHP%20Icons/b048-community.png?width=125&height=125&name=b048-community.png) ### Dedicated faculty support Receive personalized guidance and unwavering support from our experienced faculty and staff. ![An icon of three hands stacked together symbolizing teamwork or collaboration](https://info.mghihp.edu/hs-fs/hubfs/IHP%20Icons/b098-teamwork.png?width=125&height=125&name=b098-teamwork.png) ### Interprofessional education We pioneered collaborative team based learning, and continue to innovate in this area, developing graduates who are skilled in teamwork across professions. ![Icon of a hand holding a heart, symbolizing care, support, or charity](https://info.mghihp.edu/hs-fs/hubfs/IHP%20Icons/b025-social_work.png?width=125&height=125&name=b025-social_work.png) ### Commitment to health equity We aspire to integrate health equity practices into all aspects of our work: curriculum, clinicals & community environment, research, policies and everyday interactions with one another.    ## Connect with us to learn more [Request information](https://info.mghihp.edu/nursingihp#formtop) left-quote Created with Sketch.

MGH’s connection to the \[University\] was a big deciding factor to me, I mean, it’s a world-renowned hospital. It was important to do the clinicals here, in fact, I did my preceptorship on the floor that I currently work on. Also, the program is set apart from other nursing programs because all classes are in-person, which I found super helpful. ![Headshot of Tyler Brown](https://info.mghihp.edu/hs-fs/hubfs/tyler-brown-test2.jpg?width=100&height=100&name=tyler-brown-test2.jpg) ###### Tyler Brown, RN ABSN '23 left-quote Created with Sketch. \[Mass General Brigham University\] of Health Professionals really prepared me well for the role.
