Hi my name is Tara Wells.

And in today's video I will be explaining my degree plan and career path to you guys.

So I am currently a freshman here at T. S. U.

My major is pre nursing which falls under the biology compartment.

And yeah I'm gonna tell you guys a little bit about that and

the skills needed as well as education in order to pursue my goals.

So

for most people who don't know biology can be

defined as the study of life and organisms.

Um

Biology as a field has helped us understand

in depth about the living organisms around us and their environments.

Um has contributed heavily to the investment of modern day medicine,

agriculture and bio type biology.

Through this field we are able to bring about

major advancements in the everyday quality of life.

So some of the degree plans offered here at T. S. U. R. A.

Bachelor of Science and Biology. Bachelor of Science um and Biology.

Pre health concentration,

Bachelor of Science degree and Geographic information Systems and a

two year nursing curriculum which is my current pathway,

the historical foundation of Biology.

So biology was founded by Aristotle back in 34 Bc.

Before Aristotle's theory was supported um There were other scientists who

had theories but it was never fully supported by scientific evidence.

So

um Aristotle was able to come up about coming

up with the theory of life through various

experiments that he performed in the wild and now

due to the experience experiments we have the basis of biology that we use for today.

Um current and future contributions to biology.

Um the history of biology goes as far as far back as 384 you see.

Many scientists have had theories of life but as I said before,

they were never fully supported.

Um Due to Aristotle's discoveries, discoveries,

we pretty much have everything we need to know biology but

I do believe there's always work for growth of future contribution.

That I think would be pretty cool.

Is a creator is um creating new medicines for mental mental health patients.

You know a medicine that can help ease their hysteria without causing them stress.

Um So as I said before,

we are also going to talk about my career path

and what I'm gonna be using my degree for.

I plan on transferring to nursing school after I finished my two year degree plan

here and after I finished nursing school I plan on becoming a dermatology nurse.

So for the next slide we're gonna talk about the

skills needed in order to become a dermatology nurse.

Um So in order to become a dermatology nurse there's

a certain set of skills that one must obtain.

Um the most important skill to have all its business skills.

The patients may already be nervous. You know whenever they come into the clinic.

So it's very important that you listen to them and

you pay attention to what they're telling me about the

skin conditions that you will be dealing with because it

can really help you assess and diagnose the problem.

Another good skills observation of course because you have to be able

to identify and diagnose the skin disease that you are working with.

Mhm.

And just having periods background knowledge and a college education

is very important when it comes to any nursing career.

Not just dermatology.

The education needed to be a dermatology nurse

in order to become a dermatology nurse.

Of course you have to attend a three year

accredited college and get your prerequisites of the way.

You can also take the route that I am taking and do your prerequisites at college,

a community college or here at T.

S. U. And then transfer the nursing school.

But it's also easier if you wanted to to get a four year degree and then transfer to

nursing school.

Once you have got your associates or bachelor's degree you

will live up to nursing school for four years.

And after nursing school you will be required to take the R. C. O. E. X.

Which is the registered nursing um test that get you registered

with the state of texas or whatever state you plan on

working in.

And since I want to become a dermatology nurse I

will also have to take an extra step of getting certified

a dermatologist certification. Which which opens up every two years.

And after that I will be able I will be able to

gain experience in an actual clinic and start working at the clinic.

The duties needed to be a dermatologist nurse um You

have to be able to assist and recognize skin problems,

monitor patient medical histories, uh

record and record test results,

explain the test results to the patients

help the dermatologist with procedures because sometimes as

a nurse practitioner you are licensed to

perform certain procedures on the patient's also um

And that's pretty much all the duties of the nurse practitioner,

dermatology nurse practitioner.

Next we will talk about the salary of a dermatologist nurse practitioner.

So on average dermatology nurses make around 80,000

88,160 year which is around $39 per hour

according to the brew of labor labor statistics.

The nurses are estimated to make a whopping

132,000 on average in the upcoming years.

Um Nursing is a degree plan that is very,

nursing is a career that is very high demand at the moment.

So of course it's gonna see an incline in salary over a few years

And last but not least.

We're gonna talk about my outlook after doing my research,

I am actually excited to step into my career.

It's something I'm very passionate about.

I've been passionate about skin care since I was 17 years old.

So before even doing the research already. But this was going to do.

But this is what I wanted to do. This kind of confirmed it for me. Um

And yeah I hope you guys are doing my presentation and

bye.
