Why Health Services Management?

While attending high school, I knew I wanted to pursue a degree that was related to healthcare, however, I knew nursing was not for me at that time. While studying at a community college I attended a college fair and a recruiter from Western Illinois suggested I explore the administrative side of healthcare. Upon doing my own research and evaluating my skills and strengths, I found health services management best aligns with me and who I aspire to be as a professional. I knew with a health services management major I would have a wide range of opportunities without having to stay in one place throughout my career. While attending IUPUI and going through the required courses, the more I learned and attended off campus events such as site tours, the more I realized this is the role that was meant for me.
