College of Nursing is ranked 54th nationally Marquette University’s midwifery program in the College of Nursing is listed at 18th nationally in the Graduate School rankings published by U.S. News & World Report in April 2009. The College of Nursing itself is 54th nationally. “Marquette is justifiably proud when others recognize the quality of our academic programs,” said Provost John Pauly. “At the same time, such rankings are just one factor that should be used in assessing a program or university. In many of our graduate programs students have access to nationally and internationally recognized faculty, have the opportunity to participate in cutting edge research and experiential learning and are mentored by alumni who provide career-building guidance.”
