U-M students representing the School of Information, Gerald R. Ford School of Public Policy, Medical School, and School of Dentistry were selected to participate in the Clinton Global Initiative University in February 2009. The student team presented their strategy for making comprehensive health curricula available as open educational resources (OER) to healthcare educators and students worldwide.
