BHL Doctoral Study 2

Course Description

This course is the second capstone course in a series of four that represents the final phases of study for Walden University doctoral students enrolled in the Behavioral Health Leadership program. Walden requires the doctoral study to reflect a high level of scholarly effort and to either expand existing knowledge or contribute to professional practice. In the capstone, doctoral students have the opportunity to integrate their academic learning with their applied skill set by demonstrating their ability to conduct an in-depth examination and/or assessment of a behavioral health practice problem. Students complete an applied practice-based study independently, with the guidance of their doctoral study supervisory committee chair and committee members, in a learning platform classroom in which weekly participation is required. Students complete their proposal and carry out and analyze a research protocol and study. The final product should have the level of detail and sophistication expected of a doctoral-level scholarpractitioner in the discipline. In this second course, students will complete Section 2 and some subsections of Section 3 of the doctoral study. Pre-requisites
