Doctor of Nursing Practice Projects

DNP Projects

Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP) students create a DNP project at the culmination of study. Students’ projects must:

  • Enhance health outcomes, practice outcomes, or policy outcomes

  • Evaluate health care outcomes, practice outcomes, or policy outcomes

  • Reflect a culmination of practice inquiry

  • Engage in new partnerships

  • Reflect a translation of evidence into practice

The DNP program prepares students to bridge the gap between new science and integration into practice. At the Johns Hopkins School of Nursing, graduates of our DNP program have created projects that implement research, plans, and practices that advance our profession and improve health outcomes. View the DNP projects below. 

“I find that I really enjoy mentoring other nurses and making them better leaders, or the best version of themselves they can be as far as nursing leadership goes.”
