Sorry.. for the typos of the subject of this thread..
I think nursing is one of the departments where faculty members have various kinds of doctorate degree.
I googled in the Internet. I noticed that while some faculty have PhD in nursing, many of them have PhD in other disciplines ranging from developmental psychology, public health, interdisciplinary studies or even professional doctorate like DNP, JD, PsyD, PharmD, and ED in educational psychology. I plan to teach in nursing school at least part-time. The curriculum for PhD (nursing) and MSN-to-DNP is not that attractive to me. If I go for my doctorate, I would like to learn more than research methods and statistics courses at doctorate level. Maybe something else that I can combine with nursing skills.
Is PhD in nursing highly preferable in academia and more likely to get grants?
