Abstract

There are in Brazil only 37 nursing doctors and doctoral students who obtained the Master degree in other area. A set of questions - concerning the reasons of the choice, the enrolment in the Program and the suggestions related to the nurses in similar situation and to the Nursing Schools - was mailed to this group. The answers showed that the option, in spite of being determined by several circumstances, sets up a valuable experience and is part of the history of the nursing graduate programs in Brazil.
