From Prevention to Policy
Our Health Studies major provides students with a core science curriculum that will prepare them to obtain more advanced training in health-related fields that focus on the social, psychological, and public health perspectives. A concentration is also offered in Pre-occupational Therapy for students who intend to pursue a Doctor of Occupational Therapy degree.
Why Choose Health Studies?
Careers in the medical fields require different curriculums to prepare students for their chosen path. Not all of these professions require science-heavy courses, and instead focus on the practical side of health careers. The Health Studies major at 麻花视频 University complements a wide variety of careers such as occupational therapy, physical therapy, and public health. It also offers most of the prerequisites for a doctorate in physical therapy and accelerated nursing programs. Students can take advantage of our 3+3 Doctor of Occupational Therapy program, which provides a pathway for qualified students to be admitted to the WNE Doctor of Occupational Therapy (OTD) program in the College of Pharmacy and Health Sciences.
