Integration of Engineering and Health Care
|
Kay Teschke, Professor, School of Occupational and Environmental Hygiene Leader of the CIHR/MSFHR Bridge Program Head, CERM3 Mine Health and Safety Laboratory
Background A new Program has started up this Fall at UBC that has been spun-ff from CERM3's collaborations with other departments. The School of Occupational and Environmental Hygiene has mounted a program to bridge across three separate, unique disciplines - Engineering, Public Health, and Policy Research.
The program was put together by the School of Occupational and Environmental Hygiene following the interactions with researchers in CERM3 with established to concepts of cross-disciplinary collaboration.
The integration of health care and engineering is not a new concept at UBC. For many years the School of Nursing has been a part of the Faculty of Applied Science which administers its budget and curriculum.
