Master's in Nursing Education

Course Overview

As a graduate of Herzing University's MSN in Nursing Education program, you'll be qualified to work in various educational settings, from university classrooms to medical centers. In addition, you may find nursing education career opportunities in hospitals, private practice, and several nursing-related positions in multiple workplaces.

There are many different types of nurse educators under two broad categories: a clinical setting, in which you train students directly in real-life patient care situations, and an academic setting, such as a college or university. The goal is to prepare nursing students for the transition from school to a professional work setting.

General Eligibility
