Marian University Bash: Building Careers in Healthcare + Construction

Written by Tracy Lisowe | Aug 11, 2023 6:58:06 PM

Marian University recently held a demolition bash to welcome its nursing program to its new home.

๐Ÿข CATCH UP QUICK: Formerly located in the Center for Health Professions building in downtown Fond du Lac, the nursing program will move to the main campus, occupying the first and second floors of the Stayer Center. The relocation brings nursing students closer to core-curricular science courses in the nearby Ridenour Science Center.

๐Ÿ‘ฉโ€โš•๏ธ๐Ÿ‘จโ€โš•๏ธ THE BIG PICTURE: The move to the Stayer Center introduces state-of-the-art simulation laboratories, modern classrooms and dedicated study areas, all aimed at enriching the educational journey for nursing and health professions students. With a legacy spanning almost sixty years and a remarkable NCLEX (National Council Licensure Examination) passing rate in the state of Wisconsin at 96.67 percent, the centralization of resources underscores the university's commitment to excellence in nursing education.

๐Ÿ‘ฉโ€โš•๏ธ๐Ÿ‘ทโ€โ™‚๏ธ๐Ÿ‘จโ€โš•๏ธ๐Ÿ‘ทโ€โ™€๏ธ THE EVEN BIGGER PICTURE: The demolition bash was a dual celebration, bringing together both nursing and construction management students. This event marked the inauguration of Marian University's Construction Management Program, symbolizing progress and breakthroughs for both academic paths.

๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿ“š WHY IT MATTERS: Marian University's demolition bash signals another layer of academic excellence for its Nursing Program. With cutting-edge facilities and strategic proximity to essential courses, the university continues to nurture aspiring nurses and health professionals. This transition also exemplifies Marian University's commitment to diverse education, as showcased by the dual celebration involving the Construction Management Program.

๐Ÿš€ The future holds promising opportunities for both programs as they thrive in their new environments.

Marian University launches two new business disciplines for students | The Business News 09.25.2023

Michelle Majewski's boots-on-the-ground approach to creating an educated workforce to meet the needs of employers now and in the future yielded two new business disciplines:

1. Construction Management

2. Risk Management and Insurance

The industry-leading course offerings that accompany the new disciplines were developed after acquiring feedback from leading third-party organizations, CEOs and company executives in each of their respective industries.

When Majewski asked about the workforce they need now and in the next five years, they answered.

Both programs are market-driven with courses designed to align industry needs with student-learning outcomes.

Daniel Enz is the program director and associate professor of the Construction Management program, and Rick Parks was hired as an adjunct professor of the new Risk Management and Insurance program after recently retiring as CEO from Society Insurance.

Michelle Majewski, Daniel Enz and Rick Parks provide more details in a September 25, 2023 article by The Business News, linked here: Marian University launches two new business disciplines for students.
