The women’s health nurse practitioner (WHNP) major combines broad foundational knowledge with specialty knowledge essential for the unique health needs of women. This program utilizes an online learning platform supplemented with on-campus intensive 2-day interprofessional team-based learning experiences once each semester. WHNP students have didactic and clinical collaborative activities with Duke physician assistant and doctor of physical therapy students during these intensives. Upon completion of the program, graduates will have demonstrated the necessary skills to provide primary and specialty health care to women as part of an interprofessional team.

This major is also available as a Post-Graduate Certificate.
