Graduate Administrative Internship Program
The Northwestern Memorial HealthCare Graduate Administrative Internship program is a critical component of our strategic plan goal to “attract and retain top talent in a culture that values innovation, excellence and the highest level of scholarship.”
The Graduate Administrative Internship is an eleven-week summer program that provides select, aspiring healthcare leaders with an unparalleled experience in Northwestern Memorial Hospital, one of the country's premier academic medical centers, or Northwestern Lake Forest Hospital, an exceptional community hospital and outpatient facility.
