Get the best of both Business and Healthcare
​Join Houston BHA Today

What is Houston BHA?

The Business Healthcare Alliance at the University of Houston (Houston BHA) was founded in May 2016 to serve to populations of students: pre-health majors and pre-professional majors.

​Our goal is to provide both an opportunity to grow intellectually and professionally by connecting Cougars to the business-side of healthcare. As our name suggests, we partner with student organizations on campus and industry organizations off-campus to facilitate panel discussions, service projects, professional development workshops, social activities, and educational activities.

Why should I join?

Here are 10 reasons:
For Pre-Health Majors 
(Pre-med, Pre-vet, Pre-dent, Pre-opt, Nursing, etc...)
For Pre-Professional Majors 
(Everyone else; i.e.:Business, Engineering & Tech, Liberal Arts, etc...)
Exposure to the business-side of healthcare; a critical perspective for providing patient-centered care
Networking with the healthcare industry for entrepreneurial, small-business, volunteering, internship, and full-time opportunities
An opportunity to polish your professional skills; a critical component for performing well in graduate school interviews and healthcare​​
