It includes topics such as international health policies, maternal mortality rates in developing countries, and humanitarian aid programs. Students also engage in case studies from various regions worldwide.
This course delves into the research methodologies used in pharmaceutical studies and drug development. Students learn about clinical trials, adverse event reporting, pharmacokinetics, and regulatory frameworks governing drug approval processes.
Focused on quality assurance and patient safety, this elective covers concepts like risk management, continuous quality improvement (CQI), root cause analysis, and accreditation standards. Students are trained to implement evidence-based practices that enhance healthcare outcomes.
This course prepares students for roles in nursing education, focusing on curriculum design, instructional strategies, assessment methods, and mentorship techniques. It also covers the role of nurse educators in shaping future generations of nurses.
Addressing ethical dilemmas common in clinical settings, this course examines moral philosophy, bioethics principles, legal frameworks governing healthcare, and professional responsibilities. Students develop skills in navigating complex ethical situations with sensitivity and integrity.

D A V University Jalandhar strongly advocates for project-based learning (PBL) as a core component of its nursing curriculum. This approach encourages students to apply theoretical knowledge to real-world problems, fostering critical thinking, teamwork, and innovation.
Mini-projects are introduced from the second year onwards, allowing students to explore specific topics in depth. These projects typically span 2-3 months and involve literature review, data collection, analysis, and presentation. Students work in small groups under faculty supervision, ensuring personalized guidance and mentorship.
The capstone project is a significant undertaking that integrates all aspects of the nursing curriculum. Students select a topic related to their area of interest or professional goal, conduct original research or develop an innovative healthcare solution, and present findings to a panel of experts.
Students are encouraged to identify projects aligned with their career aspirations or societal needs. Faculty mentors guide students through the planning phase, provide technical support, and facilitate access to resources such as databases, laboratories, and healthcare facilities. Regular progress reviews ensure timely completion and high-quality outcomes.
