多明尼加大学的健康科学课程是一个全面的, interdisciplinary bachelor’s degree program that provides excellent career prospects.

If you’re interested in an entry-level job in any area of the health sector, 考虑我们的健康科学学士学位. 它会给你润色简历所需的学术理论, while teaching you the in-demand skills that employers crave and will help you stand out from the crowd.

On the other hand, 如果你梦想从事更高层次的医疗事业, 作为一名职业治疗师, physical therapist, athletic therapist, 或者医生助理, 法律要求你持有研究生水平的资格证书. So, we’ve tailored our course concentrations (called ‘tracks’) to ensure you get a comprehensive grounding in the relevant subjects and are well-prepared for a masters- or doctor-level professional degree. In fact, Dominican University offers a Master of Science-Occupational Therapy program and a Doctor of Physical Therapy program.

Also, 如果你有经商的天赋, you can also earn up to 15 credits toward a Master’s in 工商管理 (MBA) in Healthcare Management.

Of course, 上大学不仅仅是为了学习, so we’ve made sure all our students get the support they need to succeed with their course while also have heaps of fun along the way. 如果你选择网投十大可靠娱乐平台, 你将有机会加入各种各样的俱乐部, participate in great student activities and take advantage of everything nearby New York City has to offer.

What You’ll Learn

Our health sciences bachelor’s degree will provide you with critical healthcare knowledge and teach you the full range of technical healthcare skills you need to succeed in clinical and non-clinical healthcare roles.
