Rural Speakers Series
The Rural Speaker Series is a program hosted by RUUTE where providers from various rural and/or underserved areas of Utah virtually present to health science students about what their work consists of, challenges, tips, and benefits of working in this field. Health Science students of any year are invited to attend and learn from our speakers. This event is typically on a weekday from 12:00 - 1:00 PM. Time commitment: 1 hour
