In the final semester, students will take NURSING 7599- Culminating Project in Clinical Research. In this course, students apply the skills and competencies acquired in the MCR program to a problem or subject encountered in clinical research practice. There are five approaches to completing the Culminating Project that the student can select from:
Option 1: A systematic or integrated review of a research topic
Option 2: A research proposal or clinical trial protocol
Option 3: A manuscript for submission to a journal
Option 4: An individualized scholarly project of student’s choice
Option 5: A field experience (practicum) that the student organizes.
The culminating project offers students a concentrated experience that culminates the student’s acquired clinical research competencies.
