The health sciences program is designed to fit into a wide variety of different educational pathways in healthcare. You may consider the degree program in a number of different ways depending on where you are in your career.

I don’t have a degree

  • Apply for the BS in Health Science program right now and plan on pursuing job offerings in community health, health education, or health promotion
  • Choose to enroll in a diploma or associate degree program in a focused area with a clearly defined career outcome; consider the BS in Health Sciences in the future for further career advancement

I have a diploma/associate degree

If you already work in healthcare, you can potentially transfer substantial credit into a BS in Health Sciences and earn a bachelor’s degree education required by some employers for advanced roles.
