In accordance with the regulations of the Public University of Navarra and in particular in accordance with the provisions of the following Regulations of the Public University of Navarra:

The FDP will consist of a work carried out individually by the student under the guidance of a director, in which the formative contents, abilities, competencies and skills acquired in the degree are applied and developed.

The fundamental mission of the FDP director is to:

  • Set the specifications of the FDP
  • Guide the student during the completion of the dissertation on issues related to the structure of the topic, writing, philosophy or approach.
  • Ensure that the objectives initially set are achievable within the timeframe foreseen.
  • Authorize its presentation and defense

The work of the director begins the moment the student has been assigned a FDP director. 

The FDP must demonstrate that the student has integrated the competences and knowledge acquired in the Degree, through the realization of work from which applied implications for Nursing are derived. The FDP may be:

  • A literature review
  • A literature review with Proposal of Intervention/Improvement/ Elaboration of a Care Plan/Business Plan/Entrepreneurship Project/Analysis of public data/Others.

Activities for the completion of the FDP

  1. Start: once the FDP assignment process has been completed, it is the student's responsibility to contact his/her director within a maximum period of one month to arrange a working meeting. At this meeting, or within the agreed period, students will present the director with a proposal or preliminary draft of the FDP, including: title, objectives, methodology, work schedule. In case of having a co-director or an external advisor, it must be defined.
  2. During semester 7, the student must take the on-line course on Information Competencies ("CI for SAN"), available in MiAulario.
  3. Development of the FDP: during this period, the student will carry out his/her work with the advice of the FDP director, who must establish at least two working meetings with the student. The basic sections that the FDP will contain, as well as the format to be followed in the presentation, will be made known in the platform of MiAulario.
  4. Authorization for the defense: after reviewing the final written work, the director will authorise its presentation and defence. In the event of not giving the approval, the director must justify his/her refusal in a report and the student may register the FDP for its defence under his/her responsibility.
  5. Submission of the FDP: The FDP file must be attached in electronic format (PDF) in the space provided for this purpose in MiAulario. The FDP Defence Registration and the Open or Restricted Access Authorisation in accordance with the UPNA's general FDP regulations must also be submitted, as required.
  6. Defense: the public presentation of the FDP will be carried out, before the evaluation committee that have been appointed for this purpose, on the dates that the Faculty will indicate sufficiently in advance, and the student can carry out the defense in three different periods: February, May or September.
