Offered to undergraduate BScN and master鈥檚 level students, this donor-funded program allows students to gain invaluable experience and develop their skills in various facets of research including literature reviews, data collection and analysis, research methods and academic writing. The program welcomes students who propose a small-scale project of their own and seek out a supervisor amongst the ISoN鈥檚 faculty as well as students solicited by their supervisors to work on existing projects. Throughout the summer, students receive one-on-one mentorship from faculty supervisors.
The overall goal of the program is to increase interest in nursing research as a possible career option while providing mentorship and leadership opportunities to students. On September 23, 2024, five recipients of these awards presented their research projects as well as lessons learned at a Faculty Development meeting at the School.
