  • Women continue to be underrepresented in leadership positions across health and STEM-related industries.
  • Equity in pay, power and policy remains out of reach for many women today.
  • We continue to see major disparities in opportunity and outcomes for women locally, 国内和全球.
  • Women’s bodies are increasingly less under their own control due to changes in policy.
  • Women’s health issues receive dramatically less funding for research, pharmaceutical development and public policy making.
  • Caregiving and other financially unrecognized contributions to our economy and our world are disproportionately performed by women, placing unfair burdens upon the women of today.

Health leadership is about caring about improving the conditions of our society and world to result in better outcomes for everyone.

How Salem Does 健康的领导

More than 60 percent of students at Salem pursue a first or second major in health and STEM fields. 然而, every student at Salem has the opportunity to develop the knowledge and skills related to health leadership and graduate equipped with a unique set of competencies that no other liberal arts college graduates will have. This will be their tool kit that will prepare them for success in their future careers as well as their lives navigating all the ways in which health impacts them as individuals and impacts our society.

澳门永利总站官方登录 students develop the competencies to lead, 解决问题, and challenge the status quo in an ever changing health ecosystem. They develop these competencies through small classes focused on developing knowledge, skills and aptitudes that prepare women for leadership, through co-curricular experiences that create the enabling conditions for individual and team success, and through active learning experiences in the classroom and beyond that prepare them to work in a wide range of organizations across the health sector.

Salem’s 健康的领导 work is guided by a distinguished group of industry advisors who sit on the President’s Advisory Council. This group includes CEOs, Chief Diversity Officers, Deans and other leaders of nationally recognized health-related companies, foundations and nonprofits who guide Salem’s work developing new programs and initiatives for our students.
