The fellowship is designed for early to mid-career nursing faculty. Fellows gain an opportunity to network with other nursing faculty and receive consultation from expert health professions faculty. They will have access to state-of-the-art materials on professional development, building scholarship, developing cutting edge curricula, and building successful relationships with peers and the community.
