Health Professions Focus Area

The Health Professions prepare students to impact the health and quality of life for individuals, families, and communities. Health professionals are passionate about making a difference in their community, are invested in health-related prevention and treatment, and work in a wide range of disciplines. Students can learn how to identify and assess health trends, evaluate educational programs for at-risk populations, or develop the knowledge and skills needed to work in a variety of healthcare settings and jobs such as nursing, exercise physiology, radiology, medical lab science, healthcare administration, and physical, respiratory, or speech therapy.
