Brief Summary
This quasi-experimental study evaluates the effect of a health nanotechnology educational program on nursing interns' knowledge and self-perceived innovation readiness. Approximately 356 nursing interns at the Faculty of Nursing, Mansoura University, will complete a pretest assessment before participating in an 8-week educational program covering nanotechnology fundamentals, applications in healthcare and nursing, and related innovation topics. A posttest will be administered two months after program completion to assess changes in knowledge and innovation readiness.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Change in Knowledge of Health Nanotechnology
Change in nursing interns' knowledge scores related to health nanotechnology, measured using the Health Nanotechnology Knowledge Assessment Tool (NKAT), a 50-item tool with scores ranging from 0 to 50, where higher scores indicate better knowledge.
Baseline (pre-intervention) and two months after completion of the 8-week educational program
Secondary Outcomes (1)
Change in Innovation Readiness
Baseline (pre-intervention) and two months after completion of the 8-week educational program
