This study aimed to develop and evaluate an oncology nursing practicum course to enhance nursing students’ clinical competencies in cancer care, in response to the increasing number of cancer patients and limitations of observation-based training. The ADDIE model was applied to design the program. Eighteen fourth-year nursing students participated in a preliminary needs assessment and program implementation. Quantitative data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and qualitative data through thematic analysis. Students reported increased knowledge, reduced anxiety, and improved communication skills in cancer care. The practicum enhanced students’ clinical readiness and confidence through structured modules and feedback mechanisms. The developed course can serve as a model for integrating theory and practice in oncology nursing education and may contribute to enhancing future nurses’ professional competencies.
