How does the clinical project work?

Hello everyone,

I'm master's prepared, interested in pursuing a DNP degree. I assumed as a "practice based" (as opposed to the phd) it would mostly be clinical in nature with extra science courses. Every program I look at talks about implementing a research project and defending it orally? How does this work? Do people just implement this at their workplace, how detailed does it have to be, etc? Thanks for any insight!

Read the website or orientation for the programs you're thinking of doing - it is not standard across the board, but program-specific.

Oh I know I think I was just interested in peoples personal experiences to get a feel for it!
