Interprofessional Education

It's essential that students obtain the core knowledge and skills central to their discipline.  It's also important to develop knowledge and skills to collaborate with professionals from other health care disciplines.

The Office of Education offers programs to help students and faculty learn to work as teams with health professionals in other health disciplines.
