      ab: Background: Many changes have occurred in DNP programs since they first began. University of Tennessee Health Science Center began the practice doctoral program in 1999 and today enrolls over 100 new baccalaureate nursing (BSN)-to-Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP) students each year. More than 500 DNPs have graduated to date. Method: A review of the history and challenges of this program are presented as a potential exemplar for other programs to consider. Results: Several changes have taken place, including a shift from Master of Science in Nursing (MSN)-to-DNP programs to almost all BSN-to-DNP programs, a new appreciation for writing skills, and movement away from a separate DNP project. Conclusion: Understanding these changes may help other schools of nursing as they begin DNP programs or transition from their MSN-to-DNP programs to BSN-to-DNP programs.
