Overview

An undergraduate degree in Allied Health Sciences prepares students for immediate employment in a variety of health fields including case management/patient care coordination, health education, medical billing and account management, health marketing and sales, laboratory research, health insurance administration, and more. Student's degree will also prepare them for admission to graduate and/or professional schools and programs that require a bachelor's degree, such as medical school, dental school, physician assistant, physical therapy, public health, health promotion sciences, etc. Students interested in occupational and environmental health and safety or applying marketable skills in a broad range of work environments such as manufacturing, construction, health care, public health, research and development, and academia among many others, should consider this concentration. Coursework includes related topics that prepare OEHS specialists to identify workplace hazards and develop strategies to reduce or prevent accidents, injuries, and illness. They promote health and safety within organizations by developing and implementing safer and healthier workplace policies and practices. The concentration provides a foundation for professional certification in individual disciplines such as occupational safety, industrial hygiene, and ergonomics.
