ABSTRACT Aim To examine the representation of nurses in Croatian graduate nursing programs and to explore its implications for academic equity, professional development, and nursing leadership. Design Cross‐sectional descriptive study using document analysis. Methods Data on lecturers and course leaders for the 2022/2023 academic year were retrieved from all graduate and specialist nursing programs in Croatia. A total of 694 lecturers and 545 course leaders were analysed by professional background. Results Nurses accounted for 19% of lecturers in university graduate programs and 14% in specialist studies. As course leaders, they represented 11% in specialist studies and only 4% in university graduate programs. Thirty courses lacked assigned lecturers. The findings demonstrate a strong dominance of medicine and other professions in teaching roles.
