Yesterday, on December 15th 2020, Assist Prof Dominika Vrbnjak, PhD was officially sworn in as a member of The Honor Society of Nursing, Sigma Theta Tau International (STTI). The list of new members was announced on July 30th 2019 at the STTI Annual Congress. Due to the epidemiological situation in the world and the consequent cancellation of all global events organized by STTI, the oath could not be performed at a live event.
From its inception, Sigma has recognized the value of scholarship and excellence in nursing practice. In 1936, Sigma became the first US organization to fund nursing research. Today, Sigma supports these values through its numerous professional development products and services that focus on the core areas of education, leadership, career development, evidence-based nursing, research, and scholarship. These products and services advance the learning and professional development of members and all nurses who strive to improve the health of the world’s people.
On this occasion, we sincerely congratulate Assist Prof Dominika Vrbnjak, PhD for her exceptional recognition and wish her much success in her research and educational work in the future as well.
Dean and UM FHS colleagues
