Today’s models of health care require varied professions to closely work together, which is why we are committed to developing a collaborative, practice-ready workforce to serve communities in Minnesota and beyond.
Our thousands of health sciences students, who are enrolled in dozens of degree programs, learn with, from and about each other to develop interprofessional competency in practice.
Through the Center for Interprofessional Health, each of our learners get to train together in the clinical learning environment. Our community and clinical partners also play a vital role in this training. With more than 3,000 clinical training partnerships serving as training sites—many of them in rural or underserved communities—we touch every part of the state.
We are also committed to enhancing our own academic health campus and expanding opportunities for collaboration from across the health sciences to help us prepare our students for team-based care. Our recently announced vision to ensure our state has independent teaching hospitals will help advance our clinical training and education, strengthen Minnesota’s health care and health professions, and make our state a leader in the health of all Minnesotans for generations to come.
I invite you to share your voice in this conversation and dream together for how we build this vision of academic health.
