College of Nursing researchers create equitable and sustainable solutions to improve health experiences and outcomes for individuals, families, and communities provincially, nationally, and internationally. Researchers explore how innovation can lead to new or better ways to solve problems. Through this research, we challenge existing ideas and assumptions of current health and education systems to see how new solutions can provide the best outcomes for health care providers, patients, educators and students.

**Primary Purpose**:The Project Manager position is integral to the successful execution and implementation of the _Virtually There_ project. This project introduces Virtual Reality as a potential vector to new teaching strategies, curricular development, and improving student learning experiences.

The intent is to enable the College of Nursing to lead the Virtual Reality efforts strategically through a solid understanding, piloting, training, and evaluation plan.
