The goal of the PhD Program in Nursing is to prepare nurse scholars who will build nursing science by leading interdisciplinary research initiatives targeting the interface between chronic illness and care systems. The purpose of these initiatives is to better understand, develop, and test innovative interventions, and to translate research into practice. PhD student tuition and 12 month stipends are fully funded for the first two years of the program. Tuition and 9 month stipends are fully funded in years 3-5. PhD students have the option to apply for competitive summer stipends in years 3-5, but summer funding is not guaranteed.

The Duke University School of Nursing PhD Program builds on the foundational knowledge and expertise acquired in a BSN education and on the advanced substantive and expert knowledge gained in a MSN education to develop nurse scientists who will contribute significant new knowledge related to chronic illness and care systems.
