It prepares students to synthesize and apply scientific evidence to their clinical practice. This course will provide students with supportive materials to expand upon academic, communication, interpersonal, and critical thinking skills previously learned that are needed to successfully complete the capstone project. The deliverable for the capstone project is a research paper and presentation that substantiates or refutes a clinical hypothesis through integration of an existing body of knowledge and addresses the clinical problem with a population specific action-oriented plan and presentation.
