The place to learn about and register for Health Sciences interprofessional education opportunities at UW

Interprofessional Education (IPE) is more than sitting in seats in a lecture hall together.

Interprofessional collaborative practice makes care safer, more patient-centered, and it leads to lower burnout and higher job satisfaction amongst healthcare professionals.
