According to the National Association of Clinical Nurse Specialists (NACNS), clinical nurse specialists (CNSs) have been a part of the health care system in America for over 60 years. A CNS is an advanced practice registered nurse (APRN) who has earned a Master’s of Science in Nursing (MSN) or Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP) and […]
Mechanical engineering is one of the broadest fields of engineering, covering everything from automotive and robots to things on the molecular level. Mechanical engineers use computers not only to help them create and implement new designs, but also to analyze and correct problems they come across. They might work on a specific part of a […]
According to the 2010 Census, almost one in five Americans, or about 56.7 million people, have a disability. Over half of these Americans (or one in ten) reported that their disability was severe. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) reported that half of all adults, about 117 million people, had one or more […]
If you’re wondering whether graduate school is right for you, then you might want to think about what you want from your engineering career. One of the top reasons engineers earn master’s degrees is to open doors to professional roles that they otherwise would not be able to attain. A graduate degree could be […]
If you’re weighing the pros and cons of a career in engineering and a future in business, why choose between the two? You could do both. Business-savvy problem-solvers who excel at math and science can combine the fields of engineering and business in a few different ways. Students who are natural leaders may make great […]

A college degree is a must if you want to become an engineer. In fact, engineering degree programs are notoriously difficult, and many students in STEM (science, technology, engineering and mathematics) subjects take longer to graduate than their peers is less demanding degree programs. You can earn an engineering degree in as little as two […]
Engineering is the application of scientific and mathematical concepts to real-world situations. Naturally, you will need to take at least some math courses as you study to become an engineer and use some of the math theory you have learned in your future career. However, is a career in engineering even an option for you […]
