What are the research requirements for the Drexel DrNP?
Although the Drexel DrNP is not as research intensive as the PhD, all Drexel DrNP students will complete a clinical dissertation, similar to the clinical dissertation that students in PsyD (Psychology Doctorate) programs typically complete. The clinical dissertation is scholarly and is generally completed in one year. It should substantively contribute to our growing need for more evidence-based nursing practice and nursing science knowledge development, but differs both in scope and in its applied emphasis from the typical PhD dissertation.
