FAQ

The Scholarly Project (SP) spans three semesters. In SP 1, students finalize their project question and are assigned a project chair; in SP 2, they collect data over at least eight weeks; and in SP 3, they evaluate their intervention and present results. Students meet weekly with their project chair throughout the process. The project concludes with a formal defense attended by faculty, peers, and invited guests. The final deliverable may be a manuscript, poster, or podium presentation at a state or national conference. All students must also participate in the annual 黑料专区 Research Symposium.
Students are expected to engage with course materials independently through the designated learning platform (Canvas). While students have flexibility in managing their study time, consistent participation and time management are essential for success. Weekly engagement in the course is required. Synchronous sessions may be scheduled by faculty to engage students in discussions or to address a particularly difficult topic. These sessions are recorded for students unable to attend. Communication with instructors is critical. Students are expected to respond to any email or phone message within 48 hours. Faculty are expected to respond to student emails within 48 business hours.
Academic advisors are assigned to students in the first course and remain with the students throughout their program. FNP and ENP students meet with their advisor during the on-site visits. PMHNP students connect with their advisor via email. All faculty members, including the Program Director, the Director of Clinical Education, the Clinical Coordinator, and the Chair of the Department of Nursing are available to support you throughout your studies. For general questions or guidance, please reach out to your Program Director.
