Growing research shows our daily habits significantly influence our health, quality of life, lifespan, and healthcare expenses. Recognizing prevention as crucial for wellness and cost-effective healthcare has spurred interest in health education and promotion across diverse settings including clinics, gyms, organizations, and schools. Health science professionals receive training to guide people toward better living through healthy habits. The School of Health Sciences provides undergraduate programs that prepare students to: 1) serve as fitness experts in prevention and recovery programs, 2) work as health educators in community settings, 3) specialize in substance abuse prevention and treatment programs, and 4) manage operations in healthcare facilities. Graduate offerings include: Health Service Administration (MSA), Exercise Physiology (MS), Public Health (MPH), Health Administration (MHA), and Health Administration (DHA). Details appear in the Graduate Studies Bulletin. The clinical exercise science track combines exercise biology with healthcare, ideal for careers in cardiac rehab or diagnostic testing, while also providing strong preparation for advanced studies in physical or occupational therapy.
