By 2020, there will be an estimated shortage of 800,000 nurses in the U.S. The concurrent shortage of nursing faculty will also have a significant impact on the provision of well-educated nurses in the field. Due to this, there is a need for well-prepared nurse educators in higher education and health agencies now and in the future.
The Master of Science in Nursing prepares graduates to serve as educators at both health care institutions and in institutions of higher education as faculty on tenure-track, non tenure, and clinical lines. Ramapo College students participate in hands-on learning with fully functioning patient stations on campus. The Adler Center for Nursing Excellence, set to open fall 2015, will provide new state of the art nursing simulation opportunities. Our uses of technology in education will greatly assist you as you make innovations in nursing education.
