The Healthcare Club at the Yale School of Management includes over 100 members from 6 graduate programs including the medical school, the school of public health and the graduate school. We seek to increase student exposure to all sectors of the healthcare field and to assist them in their job search process. In 2009, students in the Yale Healthcare Club received offers from leading health insurance companies, consulting firms, biotech and pharmaceutical companies, and health services firms.
