UCLA School of Nursing’s two‑year, BSN‑to‑MSN Advanced Practice Registered Nurse program prepares students to practice as Pediatric Acute Care Nurse Practitioners. The Peds AC NP track requires 77–78 units over 20 courses and 840 clinical hours (600 direct acute care hours plus 60 lab/clinical conference hours). The curriculum builds from foundational APRN content (advanced pathophysiology, pharmacology, advanced assessment) and pediatric primary/chronic care into pediatric acute care assessment/management and three sequential acute care practicums (N437A/B/C). Graduates are educated to assess, diagnose, and manage complex acute, critical, and chronically ill pediatric patients across acute and specialty settings, assuming responsibility and accountability for advanced nursing care consistent with APRN role preparation. 来源： https://nursing.ucla.edu/sites/default/files/media/documents/APRN%202024-2025%20Course%20Sequences%20-%20Peds%20AC%20NP%20CNS.pdf https://www.nursing.ucla.edu/admissions-programs/academic-programs https://catalog.registrar.ucla.edu/course/2025/nursing437c https://catalog.registrar.ucla.edu/course/2022/nursing437a?siteYear=2024
