Carve Your Own Path

As you progress through your time at Brown and on the health career path, it is important to remember that every student creates their own journey. While there are those around you with a common goal, each of you will chart a different course to reach that goal. Do not compare your journey to theirs; instead, think about the career you want, the type of experiences that are important to you, and then pursue the opportunities that fit you best. Be sure to take the time to explore your passions both inside and outside of the classroom and get involved in the community around you.

We have much more information on how to best prepare for a healthcare career on our Prepare for a Healthcare Career pages.

There can be so many things you feel that you need to be doing to prepare for a healthcare career and it is easy to get caught up in the "doing" and forget to think about what you are doing. We strongly encourage you to take the time to reflect on your experiences. Think about what you have learned from each experience - about yourself, about the experience, about others, perhaps even about a career in healthcare.

Here at Health Careers Advising, we want to get to know you and help you on your chosen path. Be sure to join our email list so that you receive the weekly newsletter, which is full of news, tips, events, and opportunities for students interested in a healthcare career.

If you are a bit further in your journey to a healthcare career, need an in-depth conversation about your progress, are considering applying this cycle, or want feedback on your application you can make an appointment with one of the Health Careers Advisors. You can also review the information on our website and the informational videos we have provided.
