Student Opportunities

Southcentral Foundation’s Nuka System of Care is a relationship-based, customer-owned approach to transforming health care, improving outcomes and reducing costs.

Recognized as one of the world’s leading examples of health care redesign and a recipient of the Malcolm Baldrige Quality Award, Southcentral Foundation offers several limited opportunities for students to discover and learn about primary care best practices, data and information management, integrated care, behavioral health, workforce development, improvement and innovation, and more.

Applications for clinical rotations will be opened in February for the next academic year.

Out of care for the safety and well-being of customer-owners, visitors, and employees, effective immediately Southcentral Foundation requires all students, residents, externs and Learning Institute visitors to have completed COVID-19 vaccination prior to arriving on campus.

We appreciate your understanding and willingness to help keep the community safe!
