Notre Dame of Maryland University (NDMU) and Mount St. Mary’s University (MSMU) are partnering to address the critical nursing shortage in the state and nationwide by making it easier for students at the Mount to enroll in NDMU’s fast-track Bachelor of Science in Nursing program.
NDMU President Marylou Yam and Mount St. Mary’s President Timothy Trainor participated in a ceremonial signing of the joint agreement Wednesday at NDMU’s campus.
The new partnership between the two universities enables Mount St. Mary’s students in the Bachelor of Science in Health Science, pre-nursing track, to enroll in Notre Dame’s accelerated, second-degree Bachelor of Science in Nursing (ABSN) once they graduate.
