Great ideas often emerge through collaboration. Join faculty, students, and leaders from the College of Nursing and the College of Population Health as we celebrate shared scholarship and collaboration across both colleges.
The program will feature a faculty panel with UNM contributors to Policy & Politics in Nursing and Healthcare, a textbook used in undergraduate and graduate nursing programs. Panelists will discuss their contributions, the value of interdisciplinary collaboration, and opportunities for future partnership.
The event will also recognize recent collaborative scholarly accomplishments and provide time to connect with colleagues across both colleges.
