The Columbia University Neurology Department would like to invite students from Baruch College Campus High School to participate in a free pre-professional health program called ACComPLISHED during the academic year.
Students learn about medicine and community health from physicians and graduate students while completing a project under the mentorship of medical, dental, and public health students. It is a fun and supportive environment for students to discover their passion for a health career, learn about healthy living, and have a positive impact through a mentored community project.
We meet weekly virtually on Saturdays from September 28-April 26 from 12-2PM and there are office hours each week. Students learn about stroke, dementia, epilepsy, depression, diabetes, hypertension, and more. Virtual sessions are recorded and posted on the Columbia Course page. We also have optional monthly in-person sessions at the medical campus with CPR, first aid, simulations, standardized patients, poster presentations, and more. Past students have loved the program with 99% recommending students to participate and 80% say teens should definitely do it.

You can direct students to the Columbia Neurology website for information about the program:
