| Introduction: The inclusion of nursing administration in nursing education provides nursing students with scientific leadership and management skills to make well-founded decisions. Nurse educators have a vital role in supporting student nurses in developing nursing administration skills, accessing research products and participating in research projects related to nursing administration.
