BS Health Studies

The Bachelor of Science in Health Studies Program is designed to prepare graduates with an understanding of a wide range of health-related concepts with a strong emphasis on problem-solving skills and critical thinking. The comprehensive curriculum provides a solid foundation of general education, health-related science and in-depth perspectives in health and healthcare delivery. The BS in Health Studies program offers two tracks: a general track for those students who plan to work in a healthcare field and are not interested in pursuing advanced degrees that require more intensive science prerequisites; and a science track for students who plan to go on for graduate studies in Medicine, Dentistry, Physical Therapy, Occupational Therapy, Physician Assistant, Health Administration, or other graduate programs.

Graduates from an accredited secondary school with a record indicating potential to succeed in college.
Students with an associate degree are allowed to transfer 60 credits following the criteria stated in the Admissions section of the Undergraduate Studies Bulletin.
A minimum of 30 credits will be awarded to students holding hospital-based credit and a license/credential in an allied health profession but who do not possess an associate degree.
