Master of Science in Nursing - Nursing Education (Online)

There is a critical need for nurse educators in the United States. According to the American Association of Colleges of Nursing (AACN), U.S. nursing schools turned away 65,766 qualified applications from baccalaureate and graduate nursing programs in 2023, with faculty shortages cited as a major reason. In the same year, an AACN survey reported 1,977 faculty vacancies among 922 U.S. nursing schools. Rivier’s online master’s degree in nursing education prepares you to meet growing industry demand and positively impact the future of nursing.
