Funding Opportunities

Seed Grants are available for IPE and IPC pilot projects. Each team must include faculty and UMB students from two or more disciplines and focus on educational and evaluative components that involve practice or classroom participation.

Faculty and staff are able to request additional funding to sustain initiatives that provide interprofessional opportunities to students. 

IPE Faculty Awards are offered every other month starting in January.

This Interprofessional Education Scholars program is intended to support faculty and staff from the University of Maryland, Baltimore in expanding their knowledge and expertise related to providing interprofessional education to advance UMB's mission.

UMB faculty and staff from the schools of dentistry, medicine, nursing, and pharmacy will work with interprofessional student groups that will be completing introductory interprofessional education content through six modules (three face-to-face and three online, delivered via Blackboard) during the fall and spring semesters.

The Interprofessional Education Collaborative (IPEC) hosts faculty teams for their Institutes.

The goal of the IPEC is to prepare future health professionals (dentistry, nursing, medicine, osteopathic medicine, pharmacy, and public health) for enhanced, team-based care of patients. The Core Competencies for Interprofessional Collaborative Practice: 2016 Update was created to guide curriculum development across health profession schools.
