Join us for a special episode on The Health Line, highlighting Hofstra University’s School of Health Sciences’ newest initiative — the Health Works Co-op Program!

Health Works is an innovative cooperative education program that gives undergraduate students the opportunity to gain full-time, paid professional experience at health-focused organizations while earning academic credit. Students work 35 hours per week over a 15-week semester, earning a stipend while applying their classroom knowledge in real-world healthcare environments. The program reflects a growing movement in higher education to integrate academic learning with immersive workplace experience, preparing students for advanced study and careers in today’s evolving healthcare landscape.

Hosted by Dr. Andrea Ault-Brutus, this episode features:
✨ Dr. Edward Coffield, Co-op Faculty Lead
