Résumé

Doctor of nursing practice (DNP) projects with impactful health system outcomes can be a challenge for graduate students and graduate program faculty to develop. Rigorous DNP projects address patient and health system needs, meet programmatic requirements, and result in a portfolio of sustainable scholarship for DNP graduates. A strong academic-practice partnership may result in a greater likelihood of successful and impactful DNP projects. Our academic-practice partnership leaders developed a strategic approach to align health system priorities with DNP student project needs. This partnership has resulted in project innovation, increased clinical application, improved outcomes within the community, and enhanced project quality.
