Don't Just Dream It – Try It

Where will your future lead? At GW Careers in Health Care, you can decide. Learning from the distinguished faculty at The George Washington University’s School of Nursing and School of Medicine and Health Sciences, you’ll take a tour of various health care professions – including nursing, first response, health and wellness, and more – to determine if your future is in health care.

Get the ultimate hands-on experience in GW’s state-of-the-art labs while participating in true-to-life trauma, infection control, birthing, and other intense simulations as you’re also receiving answers to your biggest questions about careers in the health care field. When you leave this immersive three-day program, you’ll take with you a Career Action Plan that will help guide you along your chosen professional path. Whether you’re certain about a nursing, first responder, or health sciences career, or you’re not at all certain about which you want to pursue, this sampling will allow you to explore each role and decide what’s best for your future.
