You are required to present a robust academic thesis, which includes a review of the literature on a relevant issue arising from clinical practice in Singapore. You should consider the implications of the evidence you gather and use it to develop one of the following proposals:

1. A Change Innovation Proposal: To develop a proposal on an aspect of practice that should be changed or implemented based on sound evidence.
2. A Research Proposal: To develop a research proposal to answer a potential research question in order to generate new knowledge on a particular clinical issue.
The honors thesis should be based on sound theories and evidence that supports the development of your subsequent proposal.
