"One thing I enjoyed about being in systems technology was that I had elective options. The combination of having systems classes that focused on efficiency, while also having business classes that talked about leadership, progress, and employee empowerment will help me a lot throughout my career."
“I enjoyed it because I could take classes I was interested in. I didn't have a certain curriculum I had to follow to the T. Health always interested in me, so I took a lot of health and psychology classes.”
"I asked questions and really communicated with my professors; I think that's a big thing. Students may be hesitant to reach out to their professors, but they're there to help you if you tell them what’s going on."
“There were one or two times where if something was due at 11:59, I was turning it in at probably 11:55, because I had a lot going on. Sometimes we get busy, so I’d advise students to plan ahead so that you don’t get behind. Even if you have to do 20 minutes of work here and 20 minutes there, just make sure you do it in advance so that you’re not late with your assignments.”
“You think that online, you’re not going to have those interactions, but I actually had great interactions with all of my professors and other students as well. I’ve made connections with people that I still talk to today that I’ve never met in person.”
"It's a great opportunity to apply what I've been able to do in the past to drive them toward the new day of health care. I have greater confidence in driving change and decisions, because I better understood the why and not just the technical aspects of the changes in health care."
“It just opened like 25 cans of worms because you're learning marketing, you're learning about law, you're learning about criminal justice, you're learning about mental health, you learn about diversity. So, all things are beginning to make sense and you realize how much everything is connected. It's really cool because you get to dive in and then kind of figure out what works best for you.”
