Nursing educators play a vital role in shaping the future of healthcare by mentoring the next generation of nurses.

Whether in the classroom or clinical settings, they extend their impact on patient care and help address the critical nursing shortage. In addition to making a meaningful difference, teaching roles often offer more predictable schedules, promoting better work-life balance and continuous professional growth.

Ranked No. 7 among the Best Online Master’s in Nursing Education programs by U.S. News & World Report, the online Master of Science in Nursing Education from the nationally recognized UC College of Nursing offers the same degree, high-quality education, and dedicated support as the on-campus program — all delivered in a flexible format designed for working nurses balancing busy schedules.

This degree prepares students to become clinical educators and nursing faculty members. Graduates of this program are ready to design nursing curriculum, use evaluation strategies effectively, evaluate program outcomes, incorporate new technology into teaching, and design and implement online simulations.
