Meyer Memorial Trust awarded more than $600,000 to support the Oregon Consortium for Nursing Education, a partnership of Oregon nursing programs dedicated to educating future nurses. Faculty from eight community colleges and Oregon Health & Science University School of Nursing have created a shared curriculum taught on all consortium campuses. Through OCNE, students can complete coursework for the Bachelor of Science Degree in Nursing from OHSU without leaving their home community. The program expects to help the nursing shortage that is projected across the country, expected to be acute within Oregon. Photo credit:Oregon Health & Science University Foundation
