The first thing you have to do is get your RN as no real hospital is going to accept an Lpn. -I'm sorry but that's just the truth and I know it's hard and expensive......... Then, after you get your RN they have companies that specialize in Travel Nursing where you can go all over the US. Germany most likely won't take you unless, because they are somewhat like Canada, you have a special skill not found in the country. They reserve their jobs for citizens first. There is a way around it but a company would have to sponsor and request you. Go back and get your RN, you don't want to "wipe butt" for the rest of your life.

You would need to have a work visa and a German nursing license which would likely require you to have your BSN and know how to speak German.

To work as a nurse on a US military base, you would have to be in the US military. As an LPN, you aren't getting an employment visa work practically anywhere. It simply is not an adequate qualification for employment visas. RN is not enough most places, either. You'd need at least BSN, preferably MSN with a rare specialization, to be hired in most foreign countries and eligible for an employment visa. Employers have to obtain employment visas for their employees in most countries - you cannot apply. Also note that it is very difficult for any non-EU citizen to obtain employment and visa to work anywhere in the EU. Employment preferences are first, citizens of that country, then citizens of other EU countries.

You could very well become a medic at the army hospital in Germany where our injured soldiers go. I hope the person before me didnt say that.

Being a nursing major, the first obvious choice would be a career as a nurse. If you could speak German, you could potentially become a nurse in Germany, but I'm not sure whether or not you'd need extra qualifications to meet health requirements in Germany. You could also look into working in an area with many German speakers - that would be a plus for hospitals and private clinics. It would help if you told us where you're from. That way, we can help you research a few work places around you.

Can anyone list universities in Germany that are taught in English

Can anyone list universities in Germany that are taught in English?
I'm planning to move back to Germany when I'm old enough and I was wondering if anyone had a list of universities taught in English. I would just go to a university in the states, but in order to obtain citizenship, I have to learn German. Maybe I could take a class while I'm there. I'm going to study to become a surgical nurse. -Thanks
