UNM educates nurse-midwives who are prepared to meet the diverse care needs of New Mexico families and communities. I am grateful to the leaders who have come before me in our program’s 34-year history and for the dedication of the faculty and community-based preceptors who provide amazing support for our students.
I've been a faculty member since 2011 here at UNM, and I've always seen myself as a bridge between the community and academia, as well as a voice working within systems to help represent people who don't necessarily see themselves entering academia.
My experience at UNM was very fulfilling. I felt extremely supported – the faculty genuinely cared about my progression through the program. I can’t say enough. I loved UNM so much that I decided to go back and get my doctorate.
I chose UNM because it gave me the opportunities I needed to succeed. I was a mother, I was a wife, and I was working full time. The program allowed me the flexibility to be there for school and also be able to come back when I needed for my family.
Going back to school for your DNP is a big decision. Learn why UNM is the right place for you.
