The IPE Undergraduate Certificate creates meaningful opportunities for students to become “job-ready” as they enter a marketplace that demands interprofessional and collaborative skills for person-centered care. The Undergraduate Certificate is an important extension of our campus-wide vision and mission for IPE at CUW to develop health and social care professionals in mind, body, and spirit. Many pre-pharmacy, nursing, pre-medical, pre-health professional, and business students are on track (or eligible) to complete this undergraduate certificate.
