• Providing adequate healthcare to the growing and aging population—one of the most pressing challenges of the twenty-first century—is addressed by the BS in Health Sciences program.
  • The degree program builds upon a common foundation, consisting of courses in general education, biology, chemistry, and health sciences such as medical terminology, biostatistics, research, and epidemiology.
  • Students select from one of four areas of concentrations: community health education, exercise and fitness, nutrition, or pre-professional.
  • Program graduates will work in healthcare settings at the entry level or seek additional education in a healthcare or related profession.
  • Pre-Professional advisement sequence will allow students to select 30 semester credit hours from among Health Sciences courses in order to prepare for admission to a Health Sciences graduate program. Students in the pre-professional track will complete the program core and general education courses common to all Health Sciences students.
