South Florida Environment

Opportunities for networking. Barry’s South Florida location offers you excellent opportunities for networking and practical experience. There are a number of world class hospitals in the South Florida metropolitan region doing cutting-edge research, recruiting from the best personnel, and working with the most current equipment. This exposure to people and to best practices is invaluable.

International Community. South Florida’s diversity, with both residents and visitors drawn from around the world, invites professional exchange of ideas and creative solutions. This diversity also allows you to work with populations from a variety of countries, cultures, socio-economic groups, ages, and religious backgrounds, giving you potential to develop a depth of understanding.

Recreation. The intensity of the curriculum will hardly allow for time to relax on Friday evening or Saturday, but if you can squeeze in a couple of hours for fun on Sunday, what better place to be than South Florida? Barry’s Miami Shores Campus is about a twenty minute drive from the shore; about the same amount of time will take you to South Beach, with its museums, events, and clubs; cultural events are easily accessed as are major sporting events.
