There is a common misconception that working in the field of healthcare means attending medical school. While medical school is necessary to become a physician, hundreds of other roles exist in the field of healthcare, many of which do not require graduate school.
This semester’s Pathways to Healthcare panel will take place on Monday, November 13 from 5:00-6:00 pm on Zoom. There will be a brief overview presentation about different “buckets’ of healthcare occupations, including both patient-care-focused roles and more behind-the-scenes roles, where you can find more information about them, and advice for those of you who are looking to get started pursuing one of these careers.
You will also get to hear the experiences UConn alumni who are currently working in healthcare and did not attend med school, dental school, PA school, or nursing school. These fantastic alumni will also share insight into how they decided on their own career paths, what they did while still in college to gain experience, and how they transitioned into their current role post-graduation.
