Leadership
The leadership team brings together academic and administrative leaders across nursing, social work, psychology, and health sciences to guide the College's mission and growth, with a focus on supporting students, faculty, staff and alumni.
Together, these leaders guide the College's work to prepare health professionals who advance whole person health and health equity.
