    4.00 Credits
    Grand Canyon University

    This writing-intensive course introduces students to the principles and processes of research and common types of communication utilized in health care and science. The course allows students to begin developing skills and acquiring the preliminary background information necessary to complete a well-developed (evidence-based) capstone project, the focus of which is the resolution of an issue or problem currently significant to health care administration. Within this course, students conduct a preliminary literature review on a topic of interest and relevance to their major. They create an annotated bibliography; investigate appropriate research design, data collection techniques, and statistical analysis; and practice professional writing skills. Writing focus in this course is on the essential strategy and skills required for written communication in the health care industry and science disciplines. The primary writing focus at this stage is the ability to effectively communicate clearly organized thoughts across a wide array of platforms and to do so with appropriate documentation and reporting style.
