Powered by UCLA’s Public Health Expertise

In partnership with UCLA’s Fielding School of Public Health, Executive Programs in Health Policy and Management, our programs are grounded in academic excellence and real-world application. This collaboration ensures every Health Scholar receives top-tier training shaped by one of the nation’s leading institutions in public health.

Community Engagement

We believe healthcare is rooted in compassion and connection. COPE Health Scholars contribute to local communities through patient support, outreach, and hospital initiatives—and are also exposed to global service opportunities. Recently, select Scholars were sponsored to assist on surgical missions in the Philippines, supporting underserved communities while gaining hands-on experience and developing a lifelong commitment to service.
