They commit to health care. We commit to them.
Watch as rising 9th graders from the Durham Early College of Health Sciences share why they’re choosing a future in health care. These 101 students are enrolling with a clear goal: meaningful careers that make a difference.
Duke Health is proud to invest in their journey and commit to hiring qualified DECHS graduates after high school.
This is how we build a stronger, more sustainable health care workforce by growing talent from within our own community.
