Overview
The Health Science course from North Central College can also serve as the foundational major for preparing you to enter graduate programs in public health or clinical professions such as becoming a nurse, occupational therapist, physical therapist, or physician assistant. In addition, our health science program can provide guidance for students who are interested in a career in health sciences but have not chosen a specific field. As an interdisciplinary program, the Health Science major offers a strong general education foundation in the liberal arts and sciences to develop communication and critical-thinking skills, so graduates are productive members and leaders of health care facilities and teams. Health Science majors will integrate all aspects of the curriculum by completing a Senior Seminar Experience related to their career interests.
If you're considering a health science program, you will be dedicating yourself to a rewarding career that involves improving lives and the community. With a health science degree, you will have learned about health promotion, nutrition, and disease in the human body. Our health science program provides a strong foundational knowledge of the core concepts in most medical-related jobs and prepares students to further their higher education, or pursue medical school.
