The Western Regional Graduate Program (WRGP) has added 40 new programs to its roster, including Dakota State University’s master’s in health informatics, South Dakota School of Mines and Technology’s master’s in robotics and intelligent autonomous systems, and Northern Arizona University’s professional science master’s in climate science and solutions. WRGP allows master’s, graduate certificate, and doctoral students who are residents of the 15 WICHE states to enroll in high-quality programs at 47 participating institutions on a resident tuition basis. WRGP now offers 259 programs in all, with 72 of them focused on healthcare, including programs for nursing, public health, mental health and psychology, audiology and speech pathology, and biomedical informatics. WRGP also offers post-professional doctorates in physical therapy and occupational therapy, as well as a master’s in dental hygiene to train future faculty members. The new graduate programs will begin to enroll students through WRGP this fall.
