1. Healthcare Adjacent Career Pathways Workshop
Learn more about the process of clinical research - Protocols, IRB/FDA regulation, funding, and clinical research professions (e.g. clinical program coordinators, sub-PIs, etc.) The workshop will focus on what careers are a part of clinical research, including but not limited to Principle Investigators, and graduate degrees in other fields (e.g. Public Health, Management). This workshop is for those of you who know you’re interested in clinical research but don’t know if medical school is definitely the way for you.
Healthcare Panel
Have you ever wondered how health professionals manage work-life balance? Is going into medicine or healthcare worth the time commitments and stress? This panel brings together a group of experienced medical and health-adjacent professionals to share their insights and expertise on these questions with you. The panelists will discuss various topics related to the medical field, including career pathways, the challenges and rewards of the profession, and the importance of interdisciplinary collaboration in healthcare. If you ever wanted advice on preparing for medical school, developing the skills and qualities necessary for success in a health-related career, or navigating the complex healthcare landscape, the panelists' diverse perspectives and real-world experiences might just inspire and inform your path forward.

What is
Health Career Networking Night ?
Pre-med? Pre-health? Confused on what you're doing beyond that? Many students enter UCLA with a general interest in healthcare, but lack the resources they need to make informed career choices! Noticing the lack of readily available pre-professional advisors or counselors, Asian Pacific Health Corps (APHC) is hosting our annual Health Career Networking Night (HCNN) to connect UCLA students with health professionals and professional students from a variety of careers.
Along with the event, we will also be providing students a link to a Google Drive folder on April 6th containing a wealth of resources that would have been distributed at the event in person. Please RSVP to receive these resources.
