Evidence based practice means that a knowledge and understanding of research is essential in all health-related domains so that health care providers can interpret previous research findings, as well as contributing to the process of designing and carrying out research projects. Graduates will also be well equipped in roles which involve scientific writing, analysis of research, designing or administering research projects and development of research portfolios.
