“Health Science Experience Night is a wonderful opportunity for Idaho students to see the many health professions that ISU has to offer.  They experience firsthand what professionals do in the field each day,” said ISU-Meridian Enrollment Services Director Ali Crane. 

The Pocatello event will begin in the Education Building Auditorium, then building and campus tours will be available. The event will conclude in the Pond Student Union Building ballroom, 921 S. 8th Avenue, with prizes and interactive exhibits.
