Individuals who desire career mobility and movement into higher levels of management in the health care field will benefit from achievement of a bachelor's degree. Clinical managers in health care are generally expected or encouraged to achieve the advanced knowledge and skills offered through a bachelor's level program. The U.S. Department of Labor's Occupational Outlook Handbook 2006-07 notes that advancement opportunities are generally broader for registered nurses with a bachelor's degree. In fact, some career paths are open only to nurses with a bachelor's degree or above. Employment in this field is growing faster than the average, and is expected to continue to grow. Median annual earnings for registered nurses in May 2004 were $52,330.
