IBC 793 Applied Project sample papers, module by module

Reviewed by Sabrina Delacroix, PhD · Applied Project · Arizona State University · Free custom samples in 24–48h

IBC 793 launches the Doctor of Behavioral Health applied project: students learn implementation science and build an evidence-based quality improvement proposal for integrated care, one section at a time. Ten module papers are sampled here, all on one illustrative project to close the loop after positive teen depression screens in a pediatric clinic.

Send the exact assignment or rubric from your classroom and a custom sample written to it lands in 24 to 48 hours, the first one free. IBC 793 is ASU’s Applied Project course. IBC 793 Applied Project prepares DBH students for their culminating project by guiding them through designing an evidence-informed quality improvement proposal with a clear aim, measurable objectives and plans for evaluation and sustainability.

What IBC 793 is really about

Each module adds a piece of the proposal, from an SBAR and PICOT question to evidence, root causes, outcomes, measurement and a budget.

The pieces come together in a proposal folder in Module 12, followed by a poster with video, peer review and a growth reflection.

What IBC 793’s assessments ask for

The posted syllabus totals 300 points, with 40 for the proposal folder, 20 each for the SBAR, PICOT, intervention paper, stakeholder interview, chair meeting, revision plan, poster and peer review and 10 for most other module papers.

Where students lose points in IBC 793

Points slip when problems lack local data, when PICOT elements are vague, when root causes blame people instead of systems and when outcomes or budgets lack definitions and calculations.

Using a IBC 793 sample the right way

Read an IBC 793 sample to see how one proposal is built section by section. Your proposal must use your own setting, data and words.

How these samples are written

The IBC 793 samples draw on JAMA, Pediatrics, JAMA Pediatrics, Psychiatric Services, the Cochrane Library, Implementation Science, SAMHSA data and quality improvement texts, with an illustrative clinic and hypothetical data. Send your own project for work built around it.
