The University of Pennsylvania
Journal of Nursing Doctoral Student Scholarship

Our Mission

JNDSS has both a professional and an educational mission.

First, to serve the profession, each issue features articles that represent diverse ideas, spark intellectual curiosity, and challenge existing paradigms. Doctoral students will have an opportunity to explore and analyze issues and ideas that shape healthcare, the nursing profession and research around the world.

Second, to fulfill its educational mission, doctoral students will be trained in the editorial and administrative tasks associated with the journal’s publication and assisted in preparing original manuscripts for professional publication.
