On Friday, April 22, 2022, students from Dinwiddie High School’s Health Informatics, Medical Laboratory Technology I, and Medical Laboratory Technology II classes attended a field trip to South University in Richmond, Virginia.  Students were able to visit various healthcare programs during their visit such as the Associate of Applied Science in Physical Therapist Assistant,  Associate of Applied Science in Occupational Therapy Assistant, and Bachelor of Science in Nursing program.  In addition, students toured the Master of Science in Physician Assistant degree program.  Students were able to observe and have practical contact with classroom and lab experiences, with demonstrations and simulations.  The tour ended with a presentation from admissions, lunch and a fun activity.

Dinwiddie County Public Schools extend our sincerest thanks to South University for hosting us.

About South University

Established in 2009, South University, Richmond is right in the heart of Short Pump and is surrounded by eateries, shopping, a fitness center, and a bustling community. Richmond is an eclectic and historical city, with a youthful population that is known for its great food, festivals and access to outdoor adventures, like the river rapids of the James that run through its center. We get to experience the beauty of summer, fall, winter, and spring in Richmond and find ourselves only an hour or two away from Washington D.C., the Chesapeake Bay or the Blue Ridge Mountains.
