looking for advice

hi, everyone!

I need some advice. I'm getting ready to start working on my master's degree and right now i'm weighing the different options and programs.

My ultimate goal is to teach. I love teaching...right now i'm a clinical instructor and teaching part time at a community college when i'm not at my full time job working as a psych nurse.

I would love to teach psych nursing. What do you recommend I do for my masters? the options right now are getting an advanced practice degree in psych or getting my masters in nursing education.

i'm worried if i get my degree in psych, i will be limiting myself as far as teaching goes. and if i get my masters in nursing education, i'm worried i will be less marketable because i don't have a 'specialty'.

any advice? what would you do?

thanks!

Check to see if your BON specifies. In IL, you MUST have an MSN to teach. I have a good friend who didn't check it out and got an MS in education and couldn't teach. As to advice, I would go the APN route because that gives you more options: you can teach, you can practice as an APN, you can do both part-time, you can switch back and forth. Good luck.
