Results: Although Duke University and Iran curricula have similarities in philosophy, job position, course content, teaching techniques, and student evaluation, there are differences in both curricula, including the use of nursing metaparadigms. In the curriculum of Duke University, all four metaparadigms of nursing have been discussed but in the curriculum of Iran, two metaparadigms have been mentioned. How to admit students and manner of education are the other subjects. Educational techniques and job position are among the similarities between the two educational programs, but the most important differences between them are educational content and way of admitting students.
Conclusion: Although the new curriculum of the Doctor of Nursing has tried to pay attention to the clinic in addition to educational programs, but the recent curriculum in Iran, despite all its efforts to train clinical staff, is more educational and requires another curriculum to train clinical staff. However, in the curriculum of Duke University, nursing Ph.D education course separate from doctorate clinical nursing.
