lets revive this discussion shall we? as new wave of graduates with similar question arive I too would like to learn more about the combined degree of MSN/MPH, any graduates with this degree please share your experience. I am interested in global health nursing/ epidemilogy. Will be finshing my BSN this May (crossing my fingers). So how can I go about my interest and get a job to get experience. Also do I need to get GRE to get into MSN/MPH program?

I am taking that class this semester and I am surprised on the responsibility they have to take. Why would any nurse leave the bedside nursing for management? I like the concept that every nurse is a manager as they delegate, collaborate and evaluate their actions.

tip: pick a topic that you will not get bored off and pick a topic that is well researched. my program required that we write a thesis so last semester I spent a lot of time researching and critiquing articles. it gets tricky if your professors only want you to use nursing research articles. and when you are comparing articles make sure the researchers have similar population and method. I think reserarch becomes cruicial as nursing evolves into an evidence base practice. It provides why nurses do the things we do and if it is effective. keep us posted with your research cheers
