The Montana State University College of Nursing is excited to announce development and funding of the Family Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (FPMHNP) option within the Master’s in Nursing (MN) graduate degree program. This new option started being offered in Fall semester, 2009.

FPMHNP 3-Year Program of Study
The program uses distance learning methodologies and linkages with mental health providers across the state of Montana to: (1) make advanced psychiatric and mental health nursing education accessible to nurses throughout rural Montana; (2) contribute to improved healthcare outcomes for underserved populations by active recruitment of graduate students from minority and disadvantaged backgrounds; and, (3) help Montanans and others in sparsely populated areas of the region gain access to high-quality, psychiatric and mental health care.
