Professional Reflection
For the second and final component of your capstone, you will write an essay in which you discuss the process and outcomes of this project, and your overall
Health Science program journey and experiences. You will also speak more specifically about how the project relates to your area of expertise/interest and your
desired career path. Writing reflectively allows you to think deeply and consciously about your experiences, which is invaluable to successful practice in the field
of healthcare management/health science.
You should envision this component as a personal reflection on the capstone and your experience in the Health Science program as a whole. For instance, relative
to the capstone, you could discuss what you did—or intended to do—and then consider what worked well, what challenges you faced, and what you would
change or do differently to make your experience better. In reflecting on your time here at SNHU, you might discuss where you started, where you have ended
up, where you see yourself going, and so on. Note that this component is not about evaluating the capstone itself, but rather your experience within the
capstone project.
Some of the issues that you could address in this final component of this capstone may include, but are not limited to, the following:
Overall, what was your capstone experience like?
Reflect on the significance of the capstone in relation to your own experience at SNHU.
What connections do you see between your capstone and your academic program?
How will you apply what you have learned to your future academic and/or professional life?
How can you relate ethics or maintain ethical principles in your profession?
