At the University of Texas at El Paso, approximately 22 percent of the students enrolled in undergraduate nursing programs and 21 percent enrolled in the graduate nursing programs are men. These numbers may seem low, but they are actually twice the average at most nursing schools in the United States.  According to the 2011 Annual Report from the American Association of Colleges of Nursing, the national percentages of males in a bachelors and master’s nursing program are 11.4 percent and 9.5 percent, respectively.
