What is considered part of clinical hour requirements for the DNP? At what point do I begin my practicum?

DNP students must complete 500 practicum hours. These hours include time spent developing your DNP Scholarly project as well as implementing and evaluating the project. During your first semester you will be assigned a faculty advisor who will help to guide your DNP project. Students begin their DNP Projects in the first semester and should complete the project during their fifth semester.
