Health Professions Student Organizations

In an effort to support those interested in the healthcare field, Stevens supports two active student organizations: the Stevens Health Professions Club (SHPC) and Alpha Epsilon Delta (AED).

• SHPC is dedicated to providing educational and volunteer opportunities for students aspiring for a career in healthcare. Through programs offered on and off campus, students interested in an array of areas of healthcare will benefit from guest speakers representing various careers, introductions to and advice from members of professional school admissions committees, and access to volunteer opportunities at hospitals. Students are encouraged to join this club their first year if interested in the health professions.

• AED is the National Health Pre-professional Honor Society dedicated to recognizing and encouraging those committed to healthcare. The organization strives to organize events each semester focused on philanthropy, scholarship, and social issues to promote the awareness of healthcare on campus and within the Hoboken community.A nomination process for membership in AED occurs normally in the sophomore year after completing Organic Chemistry I.
