Student Engagement and Leadership Development (SELD) Team

The mentored Student Engagement and Leadership Development Team has been developed to increase the involvement of students in CAIPPER activities, interprofessional learning, social events, and service activities. The SELD Team has goals of

  1. ensuring that students have input into CAIPPER activities and
  2. creating opportunities for students across the health science colleges to engage in interprofessional education, practice and informal interprofessional social interaction.

As part of the development of SELD, 16 student ambassadors were recently recruited from each of the seven heath science colleges to help empower student leaders to initiate, implement, and grow IPE initiatives. One of the primary goals of SELD is to help meet the growing students demand for additional IPE and ICP opportunities across the seven health science colleges.

The Faculty Co-Chairs for SELD are Marianne Dunham and Jennifer Wescott. More information will be forthcoming about future events and ways to get involved. If there are any questions, please email seld_eboard@uic.edu
