Students will meet with the course instructor and/or other certificate-seeking students via electronic resources such as Echo 360, Adobe Connect, or Skype.
Students apply the design process and creative problem-solving to a variety of workplace and mixed-use environments at varying levels of complexity. Students focus on research, programming and investigations of spatial definition and organization as they relate to human interaction with the built-environment. Students investigate design decisions within the context of ecological, socio-economic and cultural contexts. Students are charged a studio fee for this course.
Qualified students enter the professional sector to refine skills and knowledge. Supervised internships approved by the School allow placements in industry, government, radio, television, print media, research agencies, etc. A signed contract must be completed prior to the start of the internship. Pass/fail only.
This seminar will provide students with an overview of the Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP) degree, with a focus on historical development and contemporary practice issues. Roles of the advanced practice nurse (APN) with a DNP degree will be analyzed in the context of current policy statements from accrediting and professional organizations. Core competencies of APNs with DNP degrees will be applied to students' specialty roles. Portfolio development will be discussed.
This course focuses on writing and critical thinking skills for development of a DNP clinical project proposal. Students will apply their knowledge related to synthesis of evidence and data collection to develop a DNP clinical project proposal to address gaps in knowledge and/or practice and design appropriate strategies to address project objectives. Implementation and evaluation plans which include measures of project impact and plan for sustainability will be developed.
