Department of Health Sciences

We offer a range of degree programs from the baccalaureate through the doctorate.

In Fall 2010, the school received approval to offer a new Bachelor of Science in Health Sciences (BSHS) undergraduate degree program.  This interdisciplinary program has been designed to meet the needs of three specific groups of students: (1) students who want to prepare for entry and mid-level positions in for profit and not for profit health care organizations, (2) students who want to apply to graduate health professions programs, and (3) licensed health care professionals who have already obtained an associate’s degree in an allied health field and would like to obtain a baccalaureate degree.

The degree program incorporates the courses already offered through our three undergraduate certificate programs:

• Gerontology
• Global Health and Rehabilitation Studies
• Rehabilitation and Disabilities Studies
