It’s all about collaboration at UD these days. One only need to flip through the pages of the University of Delaware Research magazine to feel the inter-disciplinary love on campus.
While the UD Alumni Relations Blog is all about playing nice and working together, we’ve gotta admit that the latest collaborative effort on campus is an odd couple.
The departments of Theatre and Physical Therapy and the School of Nursing have joined forces with theatre students acting as patients with a particular condition giving the health sciences students the opportunity to study real patients over a period of time and then enact their healthcare skills in a real situation with real people.
Although the University claims that this type of partnership is one of the first of its kind, the UD Alumni Relations Blog that we’ve seen this one before.
