Thesis
The purpose of both the research project and thesis is to provide the student an
opportunity to apply the research process to the problems in nursing. Both scholarly
projects are rigorously evaluated and must conform to APA format. The master's
paper or the master's thesis is the culminating academic requirement of the MSN
degree program. Either approach is considered a rigorous experience facilitating the
synthesis of nursing theory, practice and research. The completion of the thesis
awards six credits (NUR 6970/6971) and completion of the master's paper awards
three credits (NUR 6970).
