The Manipal Academy of Higher Education (MAHE) is pleased to announce the gracious welcome extended by Mr. Justin Trudeau, the esteemed Prime Minister of Canada, to the distinguished MAHE delegation during their visit to the University Of New Brunswick (UNB). The delegation, currently engaged in the esteemed Nursing Preceptorship program at UNB, has been warmly received by the Canadian Prime Minister, marking a significant milestone in global academic collaboration.
Mr. Trudeau expressed his enthusiasm for the collaborative efforts that address staffing shortages and knowledge gaps, emphasizing the potential benefits this “learn where you live” approach holds for nursing students in both nations. His words of encouragement and support have deeply motivated the visiting delegation and the teams from both institutions involved in this innovative initiative.
MAHE and UNB have established a dual BSc Nursing Degree Program, partnering with Manipal College of Nursing (MCON) at MAHE and UNB. The program has received endorsement from the Indian Nursing Council and is a global model for educational institutions. The Preceptorship Opening Ceremony on August 8th will commemorate MAHE and UNB’s dedication to global education and cross-cultural alliances, supported by the Government of New Brunswick.
