Advisory Board

The HIM Program at DSU utilizes a very active advisory board. Members of this group are professionals from a variety of facilities and organizations who serve to review and advise the HIM Program. They provide valuable insight to enhance the curriculum of the HIM Program and that helps to ensure that the topics and information taught to the students is current and relevant. They meet twice a year, once during the Fall semester and once during the Spring semester.
