INMED Works career expo is Friday, Nov. 13
On Friday, UND’s Indians into Medicine program, better known as INMED, is hosting the INMED Works: Health Professions Career Expo at the School of Medicine & Health Sciences building from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Friday, Nov. 13.
The expo is an opportunity for UND students interested in clinical care, biomedical research, public health and health sciences to meet with potential employers including Mayo Clinic, Indian Health Service and several local providers.
The event also includes a session called “The Hustle,” which is a “Shark Tank”-style room for exhibitors to pitch their organization in 10 minutes or less to soon-to-be graduates.
“We wanted something a little more robust than just expecting the students to walk up and down the aisles,” said INMED Program Manager Danielle Thompson. “Instead of just meeting with one student at a time, we wanted to give these employers an opportunity to be in a room with not only our students but our graduate directors, our clinical placement coordinators and our department admins.”
