A mixed method study investigating the key translational competencies acquired during a challenge-based course

This study provides insight into key translational competencies acquired by students during a six-month challenge-based course and insight into competencies that may be part of their continued education after graduation from both student and expert perspectives. These findings are relevant for both educators and prospective employers in the translational domain as they apply a novel ranking to the existing literature on translational competencies and elaborate on how to prepare life sciences graduates towards a translational career.
