Overview

The BioHealth Sciences (Honours) major at the Oregon State University consists of a comprehensive core with a strong biological and physical science foundation combined with a variety of health and social science courses. The BHS degree is designed to prepare students to enter a variety of careers requiring a bachelor’s degree, such as health care administration, human services and various technical positions, and to further the advancement of those already in health-related careers.

Students may elect to complete one transcript-visible option in Pre-Clinical Laboratory Science, Pre-Dentistry, Pre-Medicine/Pre-Podiatry, Pre-Optometry, Pre-Pharmacy, Pre-Physical Therapy, or Pre-Physician Assistant. An option is not required for degree completion, but these are designed to provide students with excellent training for a variety of professional programs. Options for the BHS major require additional credits beyond the stand-alone BHS major requirements, and completion of specific courses not currently offered through Ecampus.

These courses must be taken either in person at an OSU campus or via transfer credits. Most full-time students can complete the BHS degree requirements plus the additional course work related to degree options in four years.
