Hi everybody, I am looking for advice concerning the world of academia and nursing. I have a BSN and have been accepted to an NP program that I will not be able to finish until three years from now because of the core classes being full for a year (first time I've ever used one of those!). Anyway, I have thought hard about teaching and considered using an FNP masters in nursing to do so, however I have recently found a masters program with a focus in nursing education and I am thinking about doing that as it can be done much, much quicker.
I am looking for comments/advice about getting a masters with an education focus vs. an FNP focus. How hard is it to find, get into, do a postmasters program for advanced practice nursing?
How hard is it to find a teaching job? How hard is it to find a PHD program? etc., etc. Thanks
