University of Detroit Mercy

 NCIN scholar alumni at the University of Detroit Mercy “pay it forward” by returning to assist in classrooms and in the learning lab and by mentoring current scholars. While in the program, all scholars used their previous degrees to enrich the learning experiences of their fellow students. One scholar with an engineering degree brought a wealth of helpful knowledge to the classroom. That interprofessional effort extended to a project in which faculty from the college of engineering partnered with the school of nursing to develop adaptive equipment for people with disabilities.
