Alumnus Perspective

"MILI is far and away the best industry-focused group at Carlson! You have access to industry leaders through their Executives in Residence, academic options through their broad range of healthcare-focused courses, and ample opportunity for networking through all of their events. My experience with MILI helped prepare me with the skills I need to take my healthcare career to the next level!
