NURS615 Capstone Synthesis
With faculty guidance, students select and participate in a clinical teaching practicum in an academic, clinical or community setting. In consultation with faculty, students design their practicum experience. Seminars provide students with experiences in developing the skills necessary for the nurse administrator to influence change, to work with teams, and to manage resources. The professional, research, managerial, leadership, and change agency aspects the role are explored in relation to the nursing education. Based upon their findings in the Nursing Research courses, students will design and implement interventions based upon a synthesis of theory and research. Students will evaluate the effectiveness of those interventions. Students will participate in a formal presentation of their work to peers and faculty during a graduate seminar day at the University.
