  1. phd/doctoral Informatics/Nursing Informatics programs

    Mission replied to mhy12784's topic in Nursing Informatics

    I would look at PhD programs where you would receive full funding. I didn't pay a dime for my PhD (nursing with an informatics specialty). I would focus first on finding and advisor that you want to...

    Mission replied to bocaburger's topic in Post Graduate Students

  5. Doctorate in Informatics

    Mission replied to kid iowa's topic in Nursing Informatics

  7. PHD Rankings vs Job security?

    Mission replied to phosphorus's topic in Post Graduate Students

    I agree with the previous posters. I am also a PhD student at a research intensive university, though the nursing school itself is quite small. All of the new faculty and post-docs we have coming in...

  8. Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender and Queer biases in Obstetric Nursing curricula

    Mission replied to chiandre's topic in Nursing Educators, Faculty

    To OP: I think this study sounds fascinating. Maybe also a preliminary study with GLBT parents about their perceptions of care they received? KUP on your findings.

    Mission replied to carachel2's topic in Post Graduate Students

    Future of nursing report: http://www.iom.edu/Reports/2010/The-Future-of-Nursing-Leading-Change-Advancing-Health.aspx I think your guess is probably wrong. Nursing is a science (and an art) and you...

  15. Shocked at Ph.D. pay scale!

    Mission replied to MikeyJ's topic in Nursing Educators, Faculty

    Mission replied to ladybuglouRN's topic in General Nursing

  19. Phd Nursing vs MD financially

    Mission replied to thenurse2b08's topic in General Nursing

    I don't know how one can really answer this question, it really varies so much on specialty, where you work, what industry, etc. If the $ is all that matters, you're better off with an

  20. Shocked at Ph.D. pay scale!

    Mission replied to MikeyJ's topic in Nursing Educators, Faculty

    A lot of factors go into salary: private vs state, research vs non-research school, COL where the school is located, school size, etc. I am in the last year of my PhD and based on the experiences of...

  21. Second career nurses: Do you like nursing better?

    Mission replied to stefanyjoy's topic in General Nursing
