ABSTRACT

The websites listed in this chapter represent the best resources available for doctoral students and those considering doctoral study. They also include resources for research. In preparing this chapter every effort was made to include a representative group of resources from the countries that offer nursing doctoral education; however, this was only partially successful. We requested the assistance of colleagues from around the world, and this enabled us to expand the listings included here. We are grateful to all those who provided information for this chapter. In addition to these sites, individuals are encouraged to review the websites of the specific schools that they are interested in attending. Much can be learned from the review of a school’s website. For example, one can investigate faculty research interests, faculty funding, if the school’s doctoral programme has a specific focus (e.g. women’s health or gerontology), the nature of coursework and research experiences, resources and facilities available, other colleges at the university, and the availability of financial aid, research assistantships, student assistantships and courses of interest. The sites listed below include information on obtaining funding for doctoral study and research. They are listed in alphabetical order.
