R-COOL-Health Scrubs Academy II
July 13–16, 2026
Minot State University
Minot, North Dakota
Open to North Dakota high school students who will have completed grades 9-11 as of June 2026.
The Rural Collaborative Opportunities for Occupational Learning in Health (R-COOL-Health) Scrubs Academy II is a four-day/three-night camp where high school students learn what it is like to be a health professional and see an array of healthcare professions they may consider as a career. Students spend their days in various health facilities (critical access hospitals, tertiaries, clinics, long term care and assisted living facilities, ambulances, treatment centers), enjoy fun activities in the evenings, and spend the night in the Minot State University dorms. Students have the opportunity to job shadow multiple professions during the course of the camp.
The Scrubs Academy II serves as a mini-preparation program to strengthen academic skill sets associated with health disciplines, introduce adolescents to a higher education experience, and foster a relationship between the students and healthcare professionals.
