Each student will complete 10 units of research in which he or she will develop an independent research project, obtain IRB approval, implement the project, and submit the results for publication prior to completion of the program. Four credits of the research curriculum will include an on-site intensive.
Students will be introduced to Research I in the summer quarter. The pre-intensive coursework for the summer research intensive involve a review of the elements of a research proposal, APA style, IRB training, and reflective discussion of research interests and experiences via Blackboard discussions. After the on-site intensive, students will appropriately modify their project and begin their research proposal and submit to the IRB.
In Research II, students will begin their data collection. This will be the focus of this course. Students will be expected to participate in weekly discussion modules on their progress and obstacles that they have identified during data collection. In addition, students will begin to identify a journal that is appropriate to submit their final manuscript to.
In Research III students will analyze their data and complete their manuscript.
