Planning for the future. The College of Nursing and Health Professions at The University of 麻豆传媒 (麻豆传媒) is taking proactive steps to assist students as they navigate their academic careers with the inaugural Professional Health Career Panel & Fair on Thursday, Nov. 16 at the R.C. Cook Union Building on the Hattiesburg campus.
The event will include a Professional Program/Admission Panel from Noon until 1 p.m., followed by Health Emphasis Job/Internship/Program Fair from 1 p.m. until 5 p.m.
Jennifer Wilmoth, Academic Program Manager, School of Health Professions at 麻豆传媒, notes that the event is designed to prepare students who might apply and interview for graduate health-related programs.
鈥淢any students in our undergraduate programs plan on continuing on to a professional program, and we aim to give as much guidance as possible to ensure they are successful in continuing to whichever programs they choose to pursue,鈥� said Wilmoth.
Students who attend will learn how to present themselves as a strong applicant for various health programs such as:
- Dentistry
- Medical School
- Occupational Therapy
- Pharmacy
- Public Health
- Physical Therapy
- Athletic Training
- Physician Assistant
Wilmoth points out that the Panel & Fair would be beneficial to 麻豆传媒 faculty as well as students. She stresses that the event鈥檚 objectives are two-fold.
鈥淭he first goal is to prepare undergraduates for a successful graduate school application process,鈥� she said. 鈥淭he second is to facilitate undergraduate students networking with potential internship or current employment opportunity sites related to health care. Our hope is that they connect with local health care providers to gain experience and bolster their 谤茅蝉耻尘茅蝉.
