OTDE 8050 - Doctoral Inquiry Seminar V: Doctoral Summit

4 credit hours

In this course, students complete their culminating doctoral project with interpreting and analyzing results. They additionally disseminate the findings from their scholarly work, relating theory to practice and demonstrating synthesis of advanced knowledge. Public dissemination of their Doctoral Capstone projects takes place through a poster session that is conducted through A.T. Still University. Additionally, students submit a manuscript for publication or a conference abstract for presentation. Finally, students submit a doctoral portfolio that includes specific doctoral assignments as evidence of advanced preparation, as well as a case report. Their Doctoral Capstone papers and posters, along with their doctoral portfolios, are archived in the Occupational Therapy Doctoral Capstone Repository, which is available through the A.T. Still University library LibGuide.
