Overview

Program Description

The Health Studies program at Arkansas State University serves a three-fold purpose for students that are:

Planning to seek employment in a health or health related area upon graduation;

Desiring a bachelor’s degree following an associate’s degree in health disciplines and

Planning a health career that requires a post-baccalaureate plan of study.

This degree does not lead to a professional credential or state licensure.

Degree Tracks

Two separate degree tracks are proposed for the BSHS - The Professional Track and Non-Professional Track. The Professional Track requires students to have an Associate of Applied Science (AAS) degree in an allied health related field (e.g., Physical Therapist Assistant, Clinical Laboratory, Nursing). The Non-Professional Track does not require students to hold an AAS degree.
