This looks like a great opportunity for students who would like to have a unique, well-paid experience for their health professions applications!  Doctors, dentists, physical therapists, and all others wanting to work in the health care arena should have some experience working in the government and non-profit sector.  You will see how policies are implemented, assessed, and you will see who these programs help (or don’t help).  And 18 credits in urban studies will make your transcript shine as well.  The information session is on Valentine’s Day in 415West from 1-3PM.  Tell your friends!
