Linda Hickman, PhD, MBA, RN, FACHE, assistant professor, presented a poster at the American Association of Colleges of Nursing — Master’s Education conference in Tampa, Fla., in February. The poster, “Future Oriented Academic-Service Partnerships for Nurse Educational Advancement,” discussed how UMSON's partnerships with Maryland hospitals prepare more master’s-educated nurses, which in turn increases enrollment in Maryland schools of nursing and addresses nursing faculty shortages and expected vacancies in the nursing workforce.
