Veterans Affairs Health Care Technical Career Field Program
Clinical engineering (a.k.a. Healthcare Technology Management) involves managing medical devices, administering medical device networks, and engineering project management within hospitals. The Technical Career Field (TCF) program within the Department of Veterans Affairs is a great opportunity to receive plenty of on-the-job training and gain exposure to the front line of healthcare. This program can provide exposure to troubleshooting medical equipment, networking medical devices (Internet of Things), project management, lean/six sigma methodologies, government contracting, and other fields depending upon your own interests.

Possible GEAR Event
Admissions and the Hajim School Dean’s Office hosts an interview event for prospective GEAR students in mid-February and we need your help! Here’s more information about what GEAR is:
http://www.hajim.rochester.edu/academics/options/gear.html
Visiting students have an option of staying overnight at UR and we would like to have an engineering activity planned for them that helps them get to know life at UR and what it’s like to be an engineering student at UR. The event would need to be the evening (6-8:30) of Monday, Feb 18. It could be a game night, movies, UR/Engineering Jeopardy, or whatever sounds fun to you all. We want to highlight the diversity of our student body and programming this year. While we really would like all of our engineering groups to participate (either help plan or be at the event), if you are a student group that is focused on or excited about increasing the gender or racial/cultural diversity of our engineers, please please definitely join us in organizing this event! Admissions can help with funding or space needs if necessary.
If you’re interested, email Rosie Cash (rcash@u.rochester.edu).
