Program Description
The BS in Health Studies serves the needs of students who are interested in a health professions-related program, but who desire maximum flexibility in designing their curriculum. Health Studies majors often have varied backgrounds and future interests that cannot be captured in a singularly-focused health-related degree. The BS in Health Studies will provide you with a solid major core in health studies, including timely topics such as health systems & policy and public health & epidemiology, while enabling you to leverage your prior college coursework and to tailor your health studies electives and general electives to personal goals.
