Curious about what a career in healthcare could look like? Hear from a panel of alumni in a variety of healthcare fields, like medicine, nursing, dentistry, pharmacy, and vet med about what they do and how they got there from SU. Get advice and get inspired! Co-sponsored by CCPD and the Pre-Health Organization. 

*Handshake is SU’s new career platform, replacing HireSU beginning January 2026. Handshake offers many of the same functions, such as signing up for events and searching for internships/jobs as HireSU, plus expanded functionality and more opportunities. Use your SSO credentials (same as for your SU email, etc.) to get started. Complete your profile for access to all Handshake features, and then visit the Events tab to sign up for these sessions. Questions? Reach out to CCPD at pirate2pro@southwestern.edu, 512.863.1346 or stop by PRC 140.

Students whose internship is unpaid or pays less than $15/hour are encouraged to apply for the Funded Internship Program.

Students are not required to have their internship secured before applying for funding. Students may apply for funding for multiple internships, so long as they have already applied directly to the opportunities and are waiting to hear back regarding an internship offer.
