CPHA Health Professions Shadowing Program Summer 2016
The Center for Pre-Health Advising has partnered with UW Hospital and Clinics to offer UW-Madison students a two-week residential shadowing program in August 2016. Our goal is to help students make more informed decisions about career choices and become more competitive applicants. The program is designed to help students who lack connections to health professionals make these connections. All participants will have the opportunity to shadow a variety of health professionals for two hours each day. Students will observe clinicians in their routine responsibilities and learn about the qualities that characterize successful health care providers. In addition to daily clinical observation the program includes the following experiences: Students will meet daily with first- or second-year students in a health professions program on the UW-Madison campus. Students will hear from the providers who work in local free clinics and community health organizations
