Welcome
Healthcare Management Career Development Committee
We appreciate your interest in the committee!
My name is Tyler Jones and I will be heading the committee this semester. We will bring in industry professionals to give presentations on material relevant to the HCM curriculum. I am always available to talk about school, career, or internship advice! The goal of our committee is to show the variety of opportunities in the healthcare management space while receiving insight from seasoned industry professionals on what it takes to succeed in this field.
Risk Management and Insurance Majors - Healthcare Management Track
Take advantage of this niche program, as there are few RMI majors declared on the Healthcare Management track. This is a great opportunity to stand out amongst your peers and learn more about how the employee benefits and property and casualty fields intersect in healthcare. Please reach out if you seek to learn more about healthcare opportunities in the Risk Management and Insurance space.
Healthcare Management Minors/Non-Risk Management and Insurance Majors
For background, Gamma Iota Sigma is the professional organization that seeks to develop the professionalism of our members and expose students to the industry. The Sigma Chapter here at Temple University is regarded as a superior chapter nationwide, so this is a great way to engage in something unlike anything that you may have taken part in before. Learn more here: http://www.sigmachapter.org/.
The HCM committee will help you to better understand the concepts in the Healthcare Management curriculum. This semester's speakers were selected to complement exactly what it is that you will learn in the classroom. Engaged members will reap the benefits of professional development and exposure to healthcare industry professionals.
*Note* You do not have to be a dues-paid member to attend committee meetings!
