Members of the Pre-Physician Assistants' Club of Trine University explained to area Girl Scouts what a physician assistant does at a special event on Oct. 19.
The club was invited to the Girl Scout STEM Expo at Purdue Fort Wayne to show K-12 girls what a physician assistant (PA) is and inspire them to consider a rising healthcare career.
Club members explained what a PA does through a word search, homemade case studies, coloring sheets and pipe cleaner organs/medical equipment.
"This event allowed us to share our passion for the profession with aspiring girls and we could not have been more grateful to participate!" said Karly Ewing, club president.
Trine University has received a $100,000 contribution from Honda toward its new John and Mary Pellegrino Student Design and Training Center (Pellegrino Center).
Trine University has received approval from the Indiana State Board of Nursing to offer its Associate of Science in Nursing (ASN) program at its Brooks College of Health Professions facility.
J. Chris Carroll, Ph.D., PE, a distinguished educator and experienced academic leader, will join Trine University as dean of its Allen School of Engineering and Computing, effective July 1.
