On September 28 and 29, 2011 the College of Nursing welcomed a delegation from the Ministry of Health, Sultanate of Oman. His Excellency Dr. Ali Talib Al Hinai, Undersecretary of Planning Affairs; Dr. Ahmed Al Qasmi,  Advisor in Research and  Studies; and Mr. Said Saidi, Advisor in Administration, were hosted by the College during their visit to the Eastern United States.

The College enjoys a 17-year relationship with Oman鈥檚 Ministry of Health with nearly 200 Omanis earning their bachelor鈥檚 and/or master鈥檚 degrees from 无码专区. These nursing alumni hold leadership positions in clinical practice, nursing education and health-care administration throughout their country. College faculty have also provided consultation and continuing education in Oman. In turn the Omani students have enriched 无码专区 culturally and intellectually.

The Omani guests met with students from the Sultanate, College faculty and administrators; learned more about College programs and initiatives; and toured nursing clinical sites in Philadelphia and the suburbs.  They also toured the Driscoll Hall classrooms and simulation labs and attended a reception with undergraduate and graduate Omani students and administrators in the Driscoll Hall lobby.
