300 prospective students attended MRS workshop

On June 7, 2014, 300 high school students from across Ontario attended the Faculty of Medicine’s Guide to a Career in Healthcare Event. UT DRO’s Medical Radiation Sciences was featured during this event.

Current MRS students volunteered their time to help out with this event. They saw on a Student Panel during the Career Fair and answered questions about the program. In addition, recent graduates from the MRS program conducted a 15-minute workshop highlighting their streams and possible career options.

Overall, the attendees were keen to learn about the different career paths they can take in healthcare. Jeremy Kwan, the registrar for the MRS program, said, “The feedback we have from the attendees was overwhelmingly positive. They enjoyed the Student Panel and the Career Fair, as well as the MRS workshop. This was our first year doing this event, ane we will continue to hold such events in the future.”
