Career Exploration at MUSC Health 


Exploring a career in healthcare is often the first step before choosing training or education. MUSC Health’s Career Exploration program provides Job Shadowing and Clinical Observation opportunities that allow individuals to safely observe healthcare environments, learn about a range of clinical and non-clinical roles, and better understand day-to-day work in healthcare settings.

These short-term, observational experiences are designed to support career awareness and early exploration — helping participants determine whether a healthcare career may be right for them.

Career Exploration focuses on observation and early awareness. Individuals who are ready to move beyond observation and into hands-on training, education, or earn-while-you-learn opportunities can explore programs and resources available through the MUSC Health Career Success Center, which supports skill-building, career readiness, and entry into healthcare careers.

👉 Learn more about Career Exploration opportunities through the MUSC Career Exploration website.
