Making the Connection

The Ingham Institute’s Making the Connection Event aims to encourage students in Years 9 – 12 within local government areas of the South Western Sydney Local Health District, to explore the possibilities of pursing higher education in medicine, nursing, allied health and medical research.

In collaboration with local councils, Liverpool Hospital and UNSW South Western Sydney Clinical School, the event is designed to educate students of the multiple educational pathways available to enter the field of health, science and medicine as possible career options.

The one-day event includes:

Career Pathways Mini Exhibition

Guided site tours and interactive activities
