Program Description
The Associate of Science in Health Science degree at 国产视频 is an on-campus, two-year college degree designed to prepare first-year, first-time freshman students for entry into various healthcare related baccalaureate-level educational programs offered by LLU. For students subsequently accepted into one of the career-track programs, the curriculum for the A.S. degree prepares them with prerequisite coursework, including both program prerequisite courses and many of the general education (GE) courses required to complete a Bachelor of Science degree. For students who are undecided on a specific area of interest, knowledgeable career advisors are available to help weigh available options.
Because LLU is a health sciences university, students are educated in an environment enriched by the practice of health care disciplines. This carries the potential to provide opportunities and experiences not always available to students enrolled in health sciences degree programs elsewere.
In addition to those opportunities, LLU is committed to the concept of Whole Person Care, which it describes as an approach that ”…compels us to go beyond the physical disease. By supporting the emotional, spiritual, and social aspects of being, we can better understand each patient as a whole person — and, in turn, provide better care.”
