NUR 7455 - Special Topics in Professional Nursing Practice

Hours: 1-4

The Special Topics course encourages the student to engage in a guided study of theory application, professional topics and skills, and emerging practice questions. Learning experiences may be in the form of guided readings and discussion, directed projects, seminars, or community/clinical experience with focus on advanced supplemental or exploratory learning. Specific topics and formats will vary as they are generated by student interest and faculty expertise.

An approved Special Topics Proposal must be on file at the degree program office before the student begins coursework. Special Topics courses can be completed in either Session I or Session II (12-week course). Special Topics courses must finish at the end of the 15-week trimester. The student should discuss these course options with their Academic Advisor and indicate their selections on the proposal form.
