IVC Health Sciences club is a place for pre-health students to gather and explore the diversity of the healthcare field. We hosted speakers and shadowing events and welcomed physicians, nurses, nurse practitioners, optometry school students, surgeons, and so many other professions. The Health Sciences club was what first introduced me to the diversity in healthcare professions and how it guided me to nursing, which is my current major. Join IVC Health Sciences to share experiences, engage in IVC campus projects, and fundraising activities.
We got the opportunity to improve our vocabulary, grammar skills, reading skills and writing too. It is great experience for me. I feel confident at my work because of AESL.
AESL is a perfect place to start life in the USA. AESL brings joy! Success begins here!
Since 2020, the IVC Life Sciences faculty have collaborated with the IVC Transfer Center to host the annual Health Professions Conference. Held virtually, any and all California community college students are invited to learn about program and career options in a variety of health professions, including nursing, PA, PT, OT, medicine, pharmacy, dentistry, and more. Sessions have highlighted local professional schools and admission requirements, addressed recommended steps to a health profession, preparation for medical school, and interviewing tips. Panels have included health professionals sharing their real-life experiences. This event is a great way to explore your career options in healthcare.
