About Students 2 Science (S2S)

About the Opportunity

Our Allied Health Career Day is designed to put students in the shoes of healthcare professionals. Through interactive activities and simulations, students explore what it is like to work in clinical, diagnostic, and patient-care roles across the healthcare industry.

We are looking for healthcare professionals who want to share their experiences, answer questions, and help students better understand the many paths available in healthcare.

No teaching experience is required. Your lived experience, compassion, and willingness to engage are what make the biggest difference.
