Heel Health

Opportunities and Resources for Health Professions Students and Future Students at UNC

HeelHealth.org is a centralized, easy-to-use directory to help current and future UNC students find UNC opportunities in the health sciences. This includes opportunities across UNC Dentistry, Public Health, Medicine, and Nursing, along with various university wide awards. While this resource is aimed for those who are a part of the UNC community, it is also meant to make accessible UNC opportunities for those who want to eventually join. By providing a broad range of opportunities in one place, the platform simplifies the search process, making it easier for students to find health opportunities they need to advance their careers.
