Aggies Pursuing Healthcare
About This Organization
- Abbreviation(s):
- Aggies Pursuing Healthcare
- Purpose:
- The purpose of this organization is to provide a place where students across a variety of healthcare-related fields can come together to advocate health education, advance students' careers through professional development, and participate in service activities throughout the community. Through our organization, students network with other students, professors, advisors, and professionals in health-related fields.
Our philanthropy for the 2021-2022 school year is Camp Kesem. Kesem is a nationwide community, driven by passionate college student leaders, that supports children through and beyond their parent's cancer. Kesem's flagship program, Camp Kesem, operates free summer camps for children who have been impacted by a parent's cancer.
We will provide social events for our members to help them develop interpersonal skills and form stronger ties within the organization. Our organization will also offer opportunities for members to develop leadership skills. Professional events will also be provided, such as interview workshops, resume workshops, and speakers in a variety of healthcare fields. Each member will have individual responsibilities, as they will be required to do an appropriate share of organizing and overseeing events. Furthermore, our organization will offer numerous officer positions so that devoted members can broaden their responsibility and leadership skills. We accept anyone with plans on going into a health care-related field, such as public health, medical school, PT school, dental school, grad school, and vet school.
