MSN Program Director

A university based in Irvine, CA is seeking a Program Director to lead its Master of Science in Nursing (MSN) program, overseeing both the MSN-Ed and MSN-FNP tracks. This role combines academic leadership, curriculum oversight, and accreditation compliance with a continued presence in graduate-level teaching.

Compensation: $135,000 per year.

What You'll Do

The Program Director provides day to day operational oversight of the MSN program across both the MSN-Ed and MSN-FNP tracks, directing curriculum design, evaluation, and continuous improvement in alignment with national graduate nursing competencies such as AACN Essentials and NONPF, as well as evolving healthcare workforce needs. This role ensures ongoing compliance with CCNE accreditation standards, California Board of Registered Nursing regulations, and institutional policy, including preparing self-studies, reports, and site visits.

The Program Director recruits, mentors, develops, and evaluates faculty across both tracks, and works to advance student success through data informed strategies for admissions, progression, retention, and academic support. This person establishes and sustains clinical partnerships and preceptor networks to secure practicum placements for FNP and nursing education students, and leads systematic program assessment and reporting on student outcomes, quality measures, and institutional effectiveness. The role also includes teaching graduate level nursing courses as appropriate to expertise and program needs.

  • Master of Science in Nursing with specialization in Nursing Education and/or Family Nurse Practitioner
  • Unencumbered California RN license (or eligible for licensure)
  • FNP certification and licensure, if applicable to track assignment
  • Minimum of three years of graduate level nursing education experience
  • Background in program administration, curriculum development, and academic leadership
  • Working knowledge of nursing accreditation standards and regulatory requirements (CCNE, BRN)

Preferred Qualifications

  • National certification and clinical experience as a Family Nurse Practitioner (FNP-BC or FNP-C)
  • Graduate level teaching experience in MSN-FNP and/or MSN-Ed tracks
  • Experience managing multiple nursing program tracks within a university setting
  • Familiarity with online and hybrid program delivery models
  • Experience developing clinical partnerships and overseeing practicum coordination
  • Record of scholarly contributions, research, or leadership in professional nursing organizations

Compensation and Benefits

  • $135,000 per year
  • Medical, dental, and vision insurance
