Actually, as a nursing student, we just discussed this in class today. A Masters in Nursing will essentially make you a Nurse Practitioner where your studies up to that point will be intense clinical work. A MSN will be more theory based and will allow you to join jobs such as an educator or an administration role. hope that helps!
Hi! I start nursing at Langara College in January 2010 and I was just wondering if it is a good idea to work at the same time. I don't want to get any student loans, and my work is fairly flexible as my manager is allowing me to have 4 hour shifts such as a 4pm-8pm one. Do you guys think it would be manageable to get like 12-16 hours a week?
