Thesis Presentations 2022 – Congratulations to all!
Congratulations to all our 2022 Thesis Presenters!
We are so happy to have resumed in-person Thesis Presentations for the first time since 2019! We had 10 presenters this year and all of them did a fantastic job. We are very proud of the hard work each and every one of our students put into this year long assignment. The hard work certainly paid off!
The thesis here at Southern Ontario College of Osteopathy is designed to show your osteopathic thinking and the student’s ability to collect and analyze information. Our students test a manual osteopathic approach to a condition and determine if there is reason to pursue this topic with further research.
This cumulative research paper is submitted in gradual components every 1-3 months throughout the final year so that we can ensure that students are on the right track and so we can identify any issues and provide guidance early. By the time we host presentations, students have had several iterations of their paper reviewed and several consultations with the thesis advisor.
Our program is designed so that students complete this component in the final year of studies, parallel to their clinical hours and final year modules. Some of our students may choose to take an additional year to complete their thesis. The flexibility of the SOCO program allows for either approach. We work with every student to help them complete the program in a timeline that is comfortable and feasible for them.
Here is a list of our Thesis Presentations for 2022!
