The IPRO Steering Committee is made up of faculty from every college at ÐÓ°ÉÂÛ̳ who work together to make sure the Interprofessional Projects (IPRO) Program is meaningful and relevant for students. By shaping project topics, guiding the program’s direction, and connecting IPRO with each college’s strengths, the committee helps ensure that every course builds the real-world skills, like communication, leadership, teamwork, and problem solving, that prepare students for their careers.
