Eileen Engelke

My underlying expertise is in nursing education and working to mentor and guide undergraduate students to consider nursing education as a career path. I am particularly working to encourage minority students into this path, as we do not have enough diversity in nursing faculty. My other expertise lies in two areas, phenomenology as a research method and studying undergraduate nursing students and their participation in college activities, specifically athletics.  

I was involved with bringing nursing students into local schools to participate in the American Lung Associations Open Airways program. This was an educational program for children with asthma.
