UNG adds advanced degree programs

The University of North Georgia says it is adding degree programs: UNG will offer a doctorate in nursing and a masters degree in a new cyber-security curriculum. The state Board of Regents approved the new degree programs at its meeting earlier this month. The University of North Georgia says classes in both new programs will begin in the fall.

“We are pleased that the Board of Regents has approved the Doctor of Nursing Practice and the Bachelor of Science with a major in cybersecurity," Dr. Chaudron Gille, vice provost at UNG, said. "We designed these programs to fill critical workforce needs in the region and build on areas of strength at UNG. Each is a natural outgrowth of existing programs and faculty expertise in the College of Health Sciences and Professions and the Mike Cottrell College of Business respectively, as well as being in high demand by students and industry."
