HOSA - Future Health Professionals Chapter at WVU: Is seeking new members! HOSA (Health Occupations Students of America) is an international organization that unites aspiring healthcare professionals. Unlike clubs such as Pre-Med and Pre-Pharmacy (which are great organizations) that are geared toward a specific profession, HOSA is inclusive of all health professions from dentistry to nursing to veterinary sciences. HOSA provides students with many scholarship and internship opportunities in various aspects of the healthcare field. HOSA also has over 70 competitions that students can participate in at regional, state, and international levels!
So far we have hosted one general meeting with the members who have already joined and with their suggestions, we have many plans for the chapter. We will be setting up group chats and zoom sessions for people in the same classes so everyone can study with each other, hosting events to practice for the competitions of choice, recruiting speakers from various fields to provide information to our members, and so much more. If there is something you want us to do, then let us know and we will do our best to make it happen! If you would like to join, please go to our WVUENGAGE page and request a membership. More information, such as how to pay dues, will be sent from there. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to reach out to either Shannon Brunzo-Hager (sabrunzohager@mix.wvu.edu) or the WVU HOSA email: westvirginiauhosa@gmail.com. Also, follow us on Instagram @wvuhosa for up to date information as we begin to host more events.
