The Bachelor of Science in Health and Human Services (HHS) focuses on preparing students to identify and meet the needs of vulnerable individuals, families and communities. Using evidence-based best practices, graduates will be able to develop, offer, and evaluate programs that help people and groups function more effectively and overcome considerable individual and social challenges. The bachelor's degree in Health and Human Services has three rigorous and complementary concentrations: (1) Public Health, (2) Human Services, and (3) Pre-Health Professions.

Students in all three concentrations will be grounded in multidisciplinary, ethical, and state-of-the art approaches to the delivery of public health interventions, human services, and medical care. This program is rooted in strong academics, innovative research, and active learning. The Health and Human Services major emphasizes community engagement and academic service learning. Students are encouraged to connect their classroom lessons to professional activities through mentored internships with non-profit organizations, community and social service agencies, governmental departments, hospitals and health care organizations across our region and beyond.

This program is intended for students interested in careers and additional graduate degree training in public health, social work, child life, health policy and administration, child and family services, addiction and recovery services, as well as specialized health care professions including medicine, physician assistant studies, pharmacy, physical therapy, occupational therapy, dentistry, optometry, and nursing.
