The two organizations’ collaboration, announced at a press conference Jan. 19 in Hamden, centers around three core areas: redefining healthcare education, providing Quinnipiac with high-quality, coordinated health and wellness services for students, athletes, faculty and staff, and developing and growing the state’s workforce pipeline.
Hartford HealthCare also will make an investment in QU and the future of the state’s workforce through a $5 million philanthropic commitment to the university over five years.
