Emphasis is placed on the role of the nurse as leader in nurse-centered and interdisciplinary models of illness management. Student teams, collaborating with regional agencies, focus on shaping the healthcare system by integrating knowledge from prior course work and diverse disciplines to address a nursing problem.
