Orientation to Clinical Practice Seminar: CAPSTONE for Physician Assistants

Catalog description

This PASS/FAIL seminar course will provide students with an orientation to clinical practice including preparation for the National Commission of the Certification of Physician Assistants examination and information requirements for licensure. Formative examinations will be administered to assess medical knowledge base and skill sets acquired prior graduation and entering the clinical practice of medicine. Although the MSPASP is a non-thesis Master degree it is expected that the student will research and write a final paper that will be thoroughly researched. The final project will include writing a clinical review article suitable for publication in JAAPA or similar publication.
