Does this make sense?

I would love to become a nursing administrator. I know to do that, I will have to have an advance degree. Someone suggested to me to go after my bsn in nursing and then pursue a MBA in Business Administration. Will that help me in my career goals? If not, what should I pursue my master's in?
Are you done with your BSN?

op: msn/mba combo degrees are what are preferred... usually clinical administrative nursing positions require msns. mbas alone will land you the non-clinical positions that do not require a candidate to be a nurse.

My facility prefers an MSN/MBA dual degree, but one of my classmates got a management position at an agency with an ASN and an AA in public health administration, so it depends on where you want to work. I think a lot of hospitals, these days, might prefer an MBA over an MSN, if you could only do one or the other. Of course, you could start a pretty heated debate over whether that makes sense!Healthcare is a business, and a pretty complicated one, at that, so an MBA does make sense. As long as it's in addition to and not a substitute for common sense and nursing judgement.

I have friends with MSN in hospital admin plus an MBA. You can get both at same time in some universities (like Univ. of Texas)

My manager has a BSN, and is pursuing a Master in Healthcare Administration.
