Health Care

The Henry Ford Early College program is specifically for students interested in entering the health care profession.

HFEC allows students to become acquainted in several health care careers by attending Henry Ford Hospital in Detroit.

They have exposure to individual participation and responsibilities in the real world of health care services and actively participate in a series of educational seminars regarding the total hospital community. Students also participate in clinical intensives (job shadowing) in 10thgrade.

Advanced Manufacturing (Open to Dearborn Residents)

The history of Michigan has always been, and continues to be, tied to the manufacturing of products. A global economy, technology, and the demand for new types of goods has changed the manufacturing process and the skills needed by those working in the field. Today’s workforce needs to be well educated, problem solvers, capable of being PI team, and have the ability to take on a variety of assignments.

We provide students with the opportunity to learn experience, and achieve the level of education required, not just to get a job, but to start a career in the new technology or manufacturing field. Starting in the ninth grade and ending in grade thirteen, students will be able to complete six years of education in only five years. Students can earn both a high school diploma and a two year college degree or earn a – as that could lead to immediate employment. All of this is provided at little or no cost to students or parents!
