When the student's current MSN pathway or course requires a preceptor, mentor, or practicum site, we support University of Nevada, Las Vegas students with candidate sourcing and documentation. Final review stays with the program, and accreditation confirms the master's degree rather than any particular pathway, hours, or placement procedure.
The compact record deliberately separates an accreditation fact from placement assumptions. University of Nevada, Las Vegas is included because of its master's nursing accreditation evidence. The record does not establish what concentrations it offers, whether a course has field hours, or whether the student, school, or another party sources a site.
Our July 21, 2026 roster check found University of Nevada, Las Vegas in the CCNE accreditation evidence for master's nursing education. Accreditation supports the institution's presence in this directory. It does not identify the student's pathway, course objectives, supervisor credentials, practicum setting, location authorization, or sourcing responsibility.
Do not begin with a generic MSN placement template. Begin with the current course and ask the program to verify the pathway, required role, learning objectives, eligible setting, geography, credential standard, paperwork, compliance items, affiliation needs, and deadline. That keeps the candidate screen tied to the student's actual requirement.
When a student's confirmed course is an NP practicum, the match may center on population focus and supervised patient care. A program can evaluate the proposed clinician's certification, license, experience, practice site, patient access, availability, and willingness to complete forms. Accreditation does not tell us whether University of Nevada, Las Vegas offers that course or which clinician types it accepts.
An educator course and a leadership course ask different questions of a proposed mentor. One may focus on teaching environments, curriculum, simulation, or staff development; the other may focus on operations, quality, administration, or executive work. Only current University of Nevada, Las Vegas materials can establish whether either pathway exists and what qualifications apply.
A confirmed informatics course may need expertise in clinical systems, analytics, implementation, or workflow. A public health, community, quality, care coordination, or clinical nurse leader course may need a different setting and mentor. Use the MSN pathways page to separate the categories, then apply only the criteria supplied by University of Nevada, Las Vegas.
No fixed MSN practicum total can be assigned to University of Nevada, Las Vegas from accreditation evidence. Required hours vary by program, pathway, course, and catalog year. The current catalog, handbook, degree audit, course shell, and field placement office should resolve the total and how it is distributed before a preceptor, mentor, or site search is scoped.
Our MSN hours resource shows why NP, education, leadership, informatics, public health, and other experiences should not share one assumed total. The current program must still state what this student needs and which portion a proposed person and site would supervise.
Use Las Vegas, Nevada as directory context only. A student's actual search area should come from current University of Nevada, Las Vegas guidance about authorized states, course location, site eligibility, and affiliation. Even inside an approved area, a willing professional or organization is not automatically an eligible match.
For broader setting context, review the MSN practicum guide for Nevada. It can help identify categories of clinical, education, leadership, informatics, public health, and systems sites, while the student's current program remains the authority on what is allowed.
The program needs a proposal it can evaluate, not just a contact name. Build the file around course fit, candidate qualifications, site capacity, dates, supervision, geography, conflicts, and all requested documents. Any affiliation agreement, compliance review, authorization, insurance, background requirement, or other condition remains with University of Nevada, Las Vegas and the proposed site.
A practical readiness checklist includes the active catalog year, degree audit, course number, pathway, applied objective, confirmed hours, dates, approved geography, setting category, candidate qualifications, conflict rules, affiliation needs, compliance items, required forms, and review deadline. Mark every unresolved item for written program confirmation before the search brief is final.
If the confirmed course calls for an outside person or setting, send the pathway, objectives, dates, geography, role criteria, site criteria, and forms through the matching request. Our process guide explains how candidate screening supports, but never replaces, the program's approval review.
MSNPreceptor is an independent service and is not affiliated with or endorsed by University of Nevada, Las Vegas. We do not act for the institution, decide eligibility, or guarantee that a preceptor, mentor, or site will be found or approved. The program and proposed site retain their own review authority, and no outcome is promised.
It applies when the student's current MSN pathway or course requires a preceptor, mentor, or practicum site and the student has the current requirements needed for sourcing. University of Nevada, Las Vegas makes every approval decision.
No. The accreditation evidence establishes an accredited master's nursing degree on the verification date. It does not prove an NP concentration, education, leadership, informatics, public health, or another pathway, and it does not establish modality or placement policy.
There is no universal MSN practicum total. Required hours vary by program, pathway, course, and catalog year. Confirm the current handbook, degree audit, course instructions, and field placement office rather than relying on a generic number.
The answer follows the confirmed pathway and course. Direct-care NP, education, leadership, informatics, public health, quality, and other experiences can require different professionals and settings. The current program must approve the proposed role, credentials, site, and paperwork.
