Students in the School of Health Sciences are assigned a professional academic adviser based on their intended academic major. This process is streamlined in a way that permits your professional adviser the ability to communicate with our students more efficiently and immediately upon declaring a major.

The academic advisers use a centralized emailing process when communicating with the student on their caseloads. 学生需要给指定的指导老师发电子邮件 [email protected] to support the office’s mission and to avoid missed communication or delayed responses. Working with a singular email address also allows for our team to efficiently provide support in the absence of the assigned adviser.

Our academic advising office sponsors adviser connection sessions once a month. These sessions are provided by various academic advisers to assist students in learning more about our majors and connecting with the professional adviser in the major area you have selected.

ECLIPSE的机会和好处包括:

• Mentoring groups that create a sense of community and connection to SHS - many students share the same major or career path and take the same classes, study together, 做服务和其他有趣的活动
• Peer mentors who meet regularly with members to assist them in tracking their goals and to share resources to aid in their success
• Monthly workshops to practice leadership skills and gain additional knowledge to prepare for pre-professional programs in health
• 机会，比如社区服务, research, 临床经验和准备医学院申请
• 在竞争激烈的领域中脱颖而出
• Complete a Community Health Impact Project as the culmination of the experience in the program
• 创建一个电子作品集来展示整个项目的经历

参加这个项目的学生是这样说的:

“During my time in ECLIPSE, I have improved my skills in each of the pillars by reflecting on my experiences through my time as a student at Oakland University. Reflecting on events and experiences has helped me to cement lessons that I learn concerning communication, teamwork, roles/responsibilities, and values/ethics.” – Nick, HS major with concentration in Pre health professional Studies, Pre-Med

“One of the things that I enjoyed about the meetings for ECLIPSE were the topics that were discussed because oftentimes, 这些会议让我对不同的事情有了不同的看法. The meetings definitely made me stronger in all of the pillars and it was a way of socializing with other people. I also liked the breakout rooms because it was a chance to come out of my shell more.” – Anonymous member

“I have become a better leader through the ECLIPSE program even though I was a leader before starting, 它增强了我的技能，帮助我为别人做最好的自己. Being a healthcare professional is all about helping other people and the pillars of ECLIPSE help to highlight the areas that are most beneficial for leaders in this field.——玛丽安娜，HS专业整体健康，ot预科
