Brian K. Walsh, PhD, RRT, RRT-NPS, RRT-ACCS, RPFT, FAARC is an Associate Professor and the MSRC Bridge Program Director in the Department of Respiratory Care in the School of Health Professions. He received a Bachelor of Science in Health Sciences from Old Dominion University, a Master of Business Administration from Liberty University and a Doctor of Philosophy degree in Health Sciences (Respiratory Therapy) from Rush University.
