Chiang Mai University's Faculty of Nursing (NurseCMU) is excited to welcome four master's degree students from Columbia University's School of Nursing in the USA. This is part of the Global Student Clinical Experiences Program, designed to enhance cross-cultural healthcare education and clinical skills. These students will participate in a six-week nursing practice experience at a partner university's hospital from April 1 to May 10, 2024.
