NURS 6261 Capstone Project I

This course builds upon the concepts and knowledge gained from previous advanced nursing courses to develop a capstone project that reflects integration of theory, research and practice. The capstone project is evidence-based and consists of education/practice innovations that will impact clinical/educational environments and the health of individuals and populations. The student will collaborate with project stakeholders, their faculty advisor and project committee. Emphasis will be placed on the relevance of the proposed project to advanced practice nursing/nursing education, congruence of the proposed project with student’s chosen specialty track of the program and population foci, and appropriateness of the project scope and timeline. This course covers the beginning phases of the project including project proposal and institutional approval processes.
