Abstract
With increasing frequency, nursing students and nursing faculty members at the baccalureate, master's, and doctoral levels are demonstrating an interest in formal educational programs in international nursing. The demand for continuing education programs, particularly when offered as travel/study opportunities, continues to increase rapidly as US nurses travel, work, consult, research, teach, and study abroad in greater numbers each year. International interchanges occur with increasing frequency each year and nursing educational programs are beginning to provide students with the necessary academic preparation to function effectively in the international arena. Although many institutions of higher education are emphasizing increased global awareness among students and faculty, few nursing programs address the international dimensions of health and nursing in their curricula. A model identifying the conceptual components of an international nursing program at the master's level is presented. Nursing educators are encouraged to examine existing curricula and to incorporate international nursing into all levels of education, from baccalaureate through doctoral levels, and to offer continuing education programs dealing with international health and nursing topics.
