College of Nursing highlights doctoral work, promotes a culture of scholarship and inclusive excellence
Doctoral Student Project Showcase offers platform for nursing students to present projects
Event Information (passed)
The University of Cincinnati College of Nursing is once again providing a platform for doctoral nursing students to showcase their research. The 3rd Doctoral Student Project Showcase will take place virtually April 13, allowing PhD and Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP) students the opportunity to present their work and offer the public an insight into the breadth and quality of student research happening in the college.
Seven DNP students and nine PhD students who submitted abstracts in three categories – evidence-based practice and quality improvement, research and literature review – were selected to present. Submissions were anonymously scored and selected by UC College of Nursing faculty.
During the showcase, students with the highest scoring PhD and DNP abstracts will have extended plenary time to present their work. All other participants will have five minutes to present.
Mandi Cafasso, DNP, APRN, CPNP, interim director of the college's DNP program, said she hopes the Doctoral Student Project Showcase will encourage nursing students to present their work moving forward.
"As in the previous years, students will benefit from presenting their work in front of a safe audience of peers, faculty and supporters. Additionally, faculty will be able to provide constructive feedback to make presentations stronger in the future. The idea is to foster professional growth and collaboration between PhD and DNP students," Cafasso said.
The event will begin at 5 p.m. ET April 13 and is open to the public. Registration is required. Approximate start times for each presentation are listed in the agenda to offer individuals the flexibility to attend select sessions.
