Nursing Program Aid

A $250,000 grant will fund the creation of the Joelle and Robert Triebsch Health Scholar program at Stanislaus State. The primary objective of the Triebsch Health Scholar program is to support nursing practitioner graduates who pursue a doctorate in nursing through a program being developed by the University’s School of Nursing. The launch date for the Doctor of Nursing Practice program is fall 2025.

Education Collaboratives

Grants totaling $36.2 million have been awarded to two regional collaboratives that include Stanislaus State as part of the K-16 Education Collaborative Grant Program. The funds were awarded by the California Department of General Services (DGS), Office of Public School Construction and the Foundation for California Community Colleges. The grant program aims to provide students with quality career opportunities in their local communities by improving access to higher education and workforce opportunities. It’s part of a statewide strategy for strengthening regional economies, improving education-to-career pathways and ensuring that education, vocational and workforce programs work in partnership to provide broader access to education and employment opportunities.
