Dr. Melissa Marks

Melissa J. Marks, EdD, the Director of the Education Program, developed the Plus3 syllabus for Nursing and Education in Birmingham with the recognition that issues of diversity impact both professions (e.g., economic disparities within society), that education, health, and societal impacts are interrelated, and that specific “soft skills” are needed by both groups.  At the university, she teaches a wide variety of courses, including strategies, diversity, social studies methods, and general teacher education courses. She was awarded the PGAA Outstanding Faculty Award (2009), The Pitt-Greensburg Distinguished Teaching Award (2016), and the University of Pittsburgh’s Chancellor’s Award for Distinguished Teaching (2017).
