Health Professions Enrichment Program for 9th & 10th graders

Program date: January - May
Virginia Tech Carilion School of Medicine, in partnership with Virginia Tech’s College Access Collaborative is excited to launch the Health Professions Enrichment Program, an annual educational outreach program for 50 high-potential 9th & 10th grade students who are passionate about science and health-related careers.

The program provides the students a realistic look at what life is like as a pre-med student, medical student, and a medical professional. The program will consist of Saturday sessions at Virginia Tech’s Health Sciences and Technology Campus in Roanoke that provides hand-on, minds-on opportunities to learn about medical careers, problem-based learning, teamwork, conflict-resolution, and utilizing your strengths.
Students are required to remain fully engaged with the program from January to May.
