The Bachelor of Science in Health Science is a degree program that is ideal for students just beginning their journey to healthcare leadership as well as those adult learners who want to assume leadership roles within a healthcare organization.

Students who have an associate degree in a health-related field can complete their bachelor's degree in health sciences by taking approximately 60 credit hours with us, depending on the courses they have previously taken. The final semester will be comprised of an internship at a healthcare or human service organization, which may be, in some cases, an organization the student is employed with.
