Nursing Outreach
Nursing faculty members have strong partnerships with local and
state health care agencies. Faculty members have consulted with
local school districts, police departments, university counseling
programs, and with agencies within the N.H. Department of Health
and Human Services.
UNH faculty are health care leaders who serve on the boards of public
and private health care organizations at the state, regional, and
national levels. Through faculty exchange programs and as prestigious
Fulbright Scholars, nursing faculty members have conducted research
and studied abroad in the United Kingdom, Norway, Brazil, and Russia.
