Professional activities such as unit and hospital committees, quality improvement projects, presenting at conferences, poster fairs, etc. Assist someone with a research project. Be active in a professional association, be an officer, committee person, etc.

Show an interest and ability to do the types of things that people with graduate degrees do.
