Students benefit
from an array of guest speakers and tours of local health care
facilities in a Friday Morning Series during the first
two semesters. These sessions include presentations by
experienced professionals who share their insights and
observations about the skills needed to become effective health
care managers. Tours of local health care facilities provide
students with the opportunity to observe the daily operations of
an organization and interact with health care administrators.
The Friday Morning Series also serves to orient students
into the professional work environment they will enter upon
graduation.
