The mission of the Master of Science in Clinical Vision Research (CVR) Graduate Program of the College of Optometry is to bridge clinical care in optometry with vision science by educating and training health-care professionals to conduct clinical research in a patient care or academic setting, practicing at the highest level of proficiency, integrity, and professionalism; encouraging lifelong learning, scholarly activity and service. Over the past decade, the optometric profession has witnessed dynamic changes and growth in global health care delivery systems. This phenomenon has been accompanied by enormous advances in technology and the health sciences. It has impacted how we work, how we communicate, and how we learn. Technology has touched every field imaginable, including clinical optometry and vision science. While advances in information technology have simplified the exchange of information, it has also increased the sheer volume of data available and has made managing information more complicated than ever before. In response to these widespread changes, NSU College of Optometry has developed a two-year, 45-credit online Master of Science Program in Clinical Vision Research (CVR). This program is designed to assist optometrists; optometric educators, optometric students, as well as other health-care professionals extend their career opportunities by developing and enhancing their ability to perform clinical vision research. Faculty members are nationally recognized scholars, with expertise in teaching, research, and scholarship. The program includes a thesis. The thesis is based on a research project designed according to the student’s interest. Each student has an adviser who is an expert in the student’s area of interest and guides the student’s thesis project. This innovative program includes curricula leading to a Graduate Certificate in CVR and a Master of Science in CVR.

The program's distance education format enables institutions to support their professional employees without the employee losing valuable time away from the job. By providing educational opportunities and supporting employees' continued job growth, institutions are likely to retain their best personnel. In addition, by investing in enhancing employees' skills, the institution stands to gain through improved job performance. Most institutions have a tuition reimbursement plan.
