As a Heller student, you will work closely with the Career Development Center to define your professional goals and build strategies to achieve them. Beginning with the online Career Academy the summer before orientation, MS students regularly meet with career advisors, learn from professional development workshops and attend employer events throughout their time at Heller. In a recent survey of our 2017 graduates, 87 percent were employed or continuing their education a year after graduation.
MS students gain the tools and knowledge at Heller to get great jobs where they make positive, effective social change for improved global health. Furthermore, they learn how to evaluate health systems, how to conduct cost-effectiveness analyses and how to act as ethical, inclusive leaders among a variety of health care stakeholders. Ihsan Kaadan, MS’15, is a great example: a trained physician from Syria, Ihsan graduated from the Heller School MS program and now works at Massachusetts General Hospital as a clinical researcher.
