Writing Curricula Vitae for Online Masters of Science in Nursing Degree Students

A curriculum vitae is a compilation of one’s education, employment experience, and scholarly works. The “CV” is best written for Masters in Nursing Science degree nurses seeking academic positions.  The best way to begin is to find an example and enter your information into that example.  Templates are OK, but can be really tough to work with, esp. with trying to change the formatting if needed.  Ask a mentor for a copy of their CV to help you get started.

Start the CV with contact information then list Education then Licensure and Certifications.  Then list experience with only job titles and years employed (unlike the resume where accomplishments are listed).  After experience, you would then list specifics such as courses taught (and where), publications, grants, memberships, awards etc.  Unlike a resume’s limit of one page, the CV can have as many pages as needed to reflect education and experiences.
