AcademyHealth supports the formation of student chapters to enhance the learning and professional development experience for students in health services research and health policy. While AcademyHealth suggests that each chapter perform several key functions, each chapter is encouraged to develop additional programs and projects of interest to its members.
As part of their chapter activities, the University of North Texas Health Science Center (UNTHSC) Student Chapter recently organized a visit with Baylor Health Care System leaders.
"Some takeaways and outcomes we gained from participating in the tour were exceptional career advice, as well as how to become a more marketable candidate for available positions. The Baylor Health Care System emphasized vital credentials such as critical thinking, writing skills, ability to do literature reviews, project management, research implementation, and time and data management," said Chapter President Debra Tan.
