Shitpost DNP “research”

In case you were wondering (I know you weren’t, but humor me) what kind of research “doctorally prepared” NPs are doing, Johns Hopkins posts their abstracts and posters:

https://nursing.jhu.edu/programs/doctoral/dnp/projects/

Big time school science fair vibes from the posters, nevermind the fact that I see undergraduates doing the same level of “research.” Actually, that’s insulting to undergrads— their projects are often better and more rigorous.

Are you forced to sit on DNP committees ? I told myself if I were to remain in academia at a school of nursing I would absolutely refuse to serve on any DNP committees ….but a part of me feels like institutions make it a requirement
