However, there is minimal current literature that discusses this collaboration among undergraduate faculty. The purpose of this article is to present a case study of teaching an undergraduate nursing research course supported by the collaboration of DNP- and PhD-prepared faculty. In a revised undergraduate research course, a PhD-prepared faculty focused on components of quality research, while a DNP-prepared faculty emphasized evidence-based practice (EBP) and clinical guidelines. Interactive teaching methods facilitated student engagement and comprehension. Students reported an increased understanding of research components and the application of EBP principles in nursing practice. By incorporating DNP- and PhD-prepared faculty perspectives, nursing students reported an understanding of research and its relevance to their future practice. This approach offers a model for future curriculum development in undergraduate nursing programs by incorporating DNP- and PhD-prepared faculty perspectives.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":50077,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Professional Nursing","volume":"60 ","pages":"Pages 28-31"},"PeriodicalIF":2.8,"publicationDate":"2025-06-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144470254","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
