Department of Health Sciences
The Department of Health Sciences promotes excellence in healthcare education to a diverse student population through credentialed health care programs, which are enriched with support for student success and employability. Within the department, we offer many Certificate and/or Associate degree options. These degrees and certificates are designed for students seeking employment in Health Science related career fields. Employment opportunities in the Health Sciences are expected to rise. A career as a Nurse, EMT, Paramedic, Medical Lab Technician, Histotechnician, Massage Therapist, Human Services provider, or Phlebotomist is a challenging and rewarding career field, and one in which there must be a lifelong dedication to learning.
