I am on my second year of a three year MSN nurse educator program and we are to start coming up with potential thesis topics. I have a passion for mental health as well as education and I am trying to find a topic that I can incorporate both into. I also hope to have this topic be something I can expand on with a dissertation at some time. One topic I was thinking about is school based suicide prevention programs and if they reduce the rate of self reported suicidal ideation in students of a rural high school. I would like to have my topic focus more on nursing education though as that is my area of specialty. Does anyone have any ideas? I appreciate any help you may have.
