The degrees that Erasmus School of Health Policy & Management (ESHPM) offers are multidisciplinary: after your studies there are many directions you can go in. Do you know which industries you could work in and which jobs might be available for you? Or are you already aware of the possibilities out there, but find it hard to make up your mind?
Especially for ESHPM students we are organising an afternoon where we've invited alumni from our School from a variety of different fields to tell their stories. The alumni are working at, among others, the Ministry of Health, Welfare and Sport, Erasmus MC, Boer & Croon, Changes GGZ and DSW Verzekeringen. Career Services will also be present to give you advice on how to make a decision (regarding your future): how do you choose something that suits you? Would you like to be inspired? Sign up now!
What: presentations by ESHPM alumni, the possibility to get to know alumni, followed by an informal drinks reception
Who: both bachelor and master students (NL/EN)
Where: J7, Bayle Building
When: Wednesday 19 April 2023, 14.45 until 18.00
