I have a BBA and will have MBA next year. I am thinking about going into the health field but I dont want to work weird hours therefore Im thinking and wondering if I could teach? I'm thinking about nursing. I am a male and know there arent many male nurses. I have looked at some colleges' nursing sites and see that 95% are all female. Which makes me wonder if I should attempt this. If I want to teach do I need an MSN or BSN? I'll have an MBA.

How does one  gain experience in teaching? I see no openings in my area. I have experience in the business world

To teach pre-service nurses, you will need at least a Master of Science in Nursing (MSN) degree, which generally comes after the BSN, Bachelor of Science in Nursing.  Both of these you do not have, so your chances of landing a teaching position in the health sciences is exactly nil.

Your gender will not get you a job teaching undergraduates, especially if you know nothing about the field, which describes you, apparently.

If you want to teach, perhaps looking at local community colleges for business openings would be more reasonable.

This post seems a little troll-ish to me.

If you want to teach at the very minimum you'll need an MSN, but most places want candidates to have a Ph.D., particularly in a Nursing school that confers BSN's.  

That doesn't mean that you can't work in health education.  It just means that you aren't a good candidate to teach without the appropriate educational background.  But, there are lots of good administrative positions that have regular 8-5 hours.   If you don't want to teach or you aren't willing to get more education to become qualified to teach, then you might consider a field like Health Administration.  I'm sure that there are lots of hospitals that would like to have someone on their staff with an MBA.

If you want to teach and you aren't willing to go back at get an MSN.   Then you probably want to look at community colleges and see about teaching business.
