Sure, some programs are now concluding with a "capstone project," but this is just a professional dissertation by another name. You won't have to situate your work in a theoretical basis, but the amount of work--introduction, literature review, research methods, carrying out the project, and presenting the results--will still be there. Do not expect less work or rigor.
I Have to disagree VUL practicum is a watered down version of a research project. I am finishing my second doctorate and I can tell you i see the difference in work. I am doing an applied research project and I just finished the first class, my first part of my paper alone made 40 pages and I got two more classes to go.
I was speaking in general, not trying to take into account some exception from a TRACS-accredited thingy.
