Usually I run a script like this: 

ALTER TABLE [TABLE]
ALTER COLUMN [Column] NVARCHAR(40);

The result is that the field in the table gets converted to nvarchar. But what is the syntax for doing the same thing for a view? Or is that even possible?

    Sure

    CREATE VIEW AView
AS
SELECT CAST(title AS char(50))
FROM titles

    So check out CAST and also CONVERT on the msdn pages for full info
