Kelley School online MBA No. 1, nursing master’s No. 2 in U.S. News national online program rankings

School moves up 8 spots over last year’s rankings. Online MSN in Nursing Education also ranked #2 nationwide.

The Indiana University School of Nursing (IUSON) has been ranked No. 2 nationally among the 2024 Best Online Master’s in Nursing Programs by U.S. News & World Report.

IUSON’s Master of Science in Nursing Education specialty also ranked second, moving up two spots over last year. The Master of Science in Nursing Administration/Leadership specialty ranked 11th, moving up 6 spots from 2023.

“A strong master’s program at Indiana University is essential to educate and prepare a nursing workforce of the clinicians, educators and leaders needed to advance the health of Hoosiers,” said Robin Newhouse, dean of Indiana University School of Nursing.

“These national rankings reflect the excellence of our faculty and alumni serving the state as registered nurses in multiple settings – Advanced Practice Nurses (APN), health systems leaders focused on outstanding healthcare delivery, educators focused on excellence in teaching, scientists conducting innovative research, and policy makers and advocates promoting the role of nursing in advancing health in Indiana and beyond.”

The IU School of Nursing is committed to being a leader in developing and advancing online nursing education – offering five online tracks: nursing education, nursing leadership in health systems, adult-gerontology clinical nurse specialist, pediatric clinical nurse specialist, and psychiatric-mental health nurse practitioner.

IUSON’s MSN programs prepare graduates to lead nursing and healthcare teams in an ever-changing field, encourage the pursuit of innovative approaches to improve health outcomes, recognize the value of being a lifelong learner committed to professional growth, and the development of their profession toward the health of the public.
