The University of Connecticut's Department of Allied Health Sciences aims to deliver exceptional education, research, and community service focused on enhancing health outcomes for local, national, and global populations. By earning this degree—whether through the standard curriculum or specialized tracks in Health Sciences, Health Administration, Public Health and Health Promotion, or Occupational and Environmental Health and Safety—graduates will gain the qualifications needed to enter the allied health field or apply for advanced studies in related areas.
