The Health Career Community covers careers within the medical and science research fields.

  • Medical – Focused on all things related to the field of healthcare (or Pre-Health) and is not limited to only medical school but encompasses any ‘health’ focused path.  This could include careers that range from audiology to veterinary medicine and anything in between!
  • Science Research – Given the significant overlap with considering a career in health care delivery, and in choosing to pursue scientific research, this subgroup will focus on the pros and cons of each path.
  • Clinical Scientist – Trains in both medicine and research. Conducts research and applies scientific knowledge to develop, evaluate, and implement medical technologies, treatments, and diagnostic tools to improve patient care and healthcare outcomes.
