Nursing professors develop and implement curricula in order to prepare students adequately for the challenges presented within all aspects of the nursing field. In order to keep up with the current needs of nursing, professors revise their programs where and when necessary. Like nurses, professors often specialize, teaching the areas in which they have the most experience, such as pediatrics, mental health or acute care. The duties of a nursing professor are many and varied. In addition to classroom teaching, they supervise and advise students, conduct clinical research and present scholarly work at nursing conferences. They may be asked to chair committees or even become deans of the colleges of nursing where they teach.
