As we look to the future, we have identified priority initiatives that will require support to ensure we achieve our goal of further engaging with communities through research for improved health care. This is not something the School of Nursing can accomplish alone – it will be a joint effort with the involvement of alumni, individuals, government and other organizations. Please consider supporting the UBC School of Nursing in the following priority areas:
Capital Campaign
A new building will situate the School of Nursing within an integrated, interdisciplinary centre dedicated to education, practice and research in the community health sciences. The centerpiece of this building will be a Wellness Clinic providing health promotion, preventive and primary health care.
Endowed Research Chairs
Recruiting outstanding researchers will expand and intensify the advancement of knowledge and practice in following priority areas:
- Leadership, Ethics and Policy in Healthcare Delivery
- Chronic Disease Management
- Aging
- Maternal-Child Health Promotion
- Global Health
- Healthcare Professional Education and Educational Technology
- Supportive Care in Cancer
Global Health Office
Supporting students, faculty and alumni to participate in global citizenship and international engagement will enable us to better address the complex health challenges facing our world, both locally and internationally.
