August 10, 2012
The Wayne State University College of Nursing has received a $3.4 million grant to fund the C2 Pipeline, a program to help prepare 1,250 high school students for admission to college and careers in health care.
The grant, funded by the Michigan Department of Education, will, over five years, offer 50 students at each of five public high schools a 38-week program to improve academic achievement, enhance preparation for college and encourage interest in health careers.
The five high schools are Ecorse, Oak Park, Detroit Northwestern, Detroit Cody and East Detroit.
The project is sponsored by WSU, the University of Detroit Mercy School of Dentistry and the Michigan Area Health Education Center.
