Cooperative Education Program
The cooperative education program enables junior and senior students to enhance their academic learning through work experience related to their majors. Combining classroom theory with on-the-job experience provides a unique opportunity for students to test their career choices in the work world while earning academic credit. Students work with a faculty supervisor and the employer to develop a learning agreement. Some cooperative education experiences are paid; some are volunteer positions.
Career Planning
Career Planning focuses on the importance of choosing and preparing for an appropriate career. Career counselors help students explore their interests, personalities and abilities in relation to occupations. Information, workshops and individual counseling are available on interviewing, resume writing, cover letters, job hunting and graduate schools. The Career Library also assists students in career planning and in bridging the gap between university and employment.
Career Library
Career Services maintains placement files for all graduates and assists both students and alumni in obtaining full or part time employment. The Career Library maintains a listing of full or part time jobs along with recruiting information and job-hunting books and videotapes and results of a graduate follow-up survey.

Student Health Services |
Welcome to the University of Great Falls/MSU Bozeman College of Nursing Student Health Services. Under the supervision of UGF Student Services and the MSU Bozeman College of Nursing the health center offers limited primary
care - diagnostic procedures and treatment of common illnesses; preventive health care; minor musculoskeletal injuries; and immunizations. The
center will be staffed by an advanced practice registered nurse/family practitioner with prescriptive authority. Our primary funding comes from you through a semester heath fee. There is no charge for offi ce visits but there will be a charge for services such as lab tests, vaccines and pharmacy. The health center will not provide third party billing services.Services
As an ambulatory health care facility on campus, we encourage patients to schedule an appointment to access care quickly and easily. Walk-ins will be accommodated. Visits are anticipated to take approximately 15 minutes.
Unless your condition is acute, please call in advance
for an appointment: 791-5308 between the hours of 8
a.m. and 5 p.m. Monday - Friday. If you must cancel or
reschedule, call as soon as possible. Please arrive about
15 minutes before your appointment time. Present your
ID card at the reception desk.
Referrals outside the Health Center, emergency or
otherwise, may be covered under an individual medical
insurance plan. It is up to the individual to be
responsible for any expenses incurred. For any after
hours care or referral you may need to consult with
your primary care physician for pre-authorization to
confirm your insurance coverage.
The Student Health Service is not an emergency room.
True emergencies - such as poisoning, severe injuries,
heart attacks or severe breathing problems - should
be evaluated and treated at the Benefi s Health Care
emergency room, 455-5200. Staffed 24 hours a day,
the hospital is located at 1101 26th Street South, about
three blocks east of the UGF campus.
You will also find a list of several local walk-in clinics
in the directory section of the Student Handbook at
www.ugf.edu/students/student_services.aspx
Note: Many insurance companies will not pay for treatment at the Emergency Room for nonemergency problems, and a visit to the Emergency Room will usually be expensive.
Eligibility
University of Great Falls and MSU Bozeman College of Nursing students who are currently registered and faculty and staff are eligible for services. Students who have paid the health fee may use the clinic from the first day of the semester through the last week of classes. Those who have not paid the semester fee are expected to prepay a reasonable per visit fee.
