by at

The Ohio State Battelle Center has an urgent opportunity for students who want to pursue a career in health and medicine. PUBAFRS 5620: Rapid Innovation for Public Impact has openings for a couple of its teams this semester (Autumn 2023). The course will provide opportunities for students to network in these fields, grow professional skills, and add to their resume.

The Battelle Center has seen students get hired as a result of their performance in this class for both internships and full-time employment!

Undergraduate students have used this course to earn capstone credit in various departments.

The organizations and challenges are:

  1. Ohio National Guard – An opportunity to help with the holistic health of guard members including mental, physical, and nutritional by creating a holistic health web portal to give guard members access to the information and resources they need.
  2. Nationwide Children’s Hospital – The medical field has found difficulty recruiting new employees, especially in the pediatric anesthesiology field. Students will learn why this recruiting gap is happening and how to combat it.

If you are interested, reach out to Ethan Rivera at rivera.154@osu.edu ASAP for permission to add the course.
