Meet the Next Great Need
健康研究 can lead to our BSN degree or any of our other undergraduate health or helping professions programs. Now more than ever, there is a tremendous demand for compassionate care professionals of all kinds! Explore these exciting majors:
Medical Laboratory Science
Medical laboratory scientists identify sources of disease and determine the validity of data that allows physicians to make a diagnosis or determine the effectiveness of treatment. This is a job with no direct patient interaction, well suited for those who would prefer to work in labs.
Nurses are critical members of any healthcare team. GMercyU nurses are known for being confident and capable compassionate care professionals. To gain entry into the 护理 program, you will need to earn a cumulative GPA of 3.0 or higher and all A's and B's in your math and science courses.
Occupational Science/Therapy
Occupational therapists work to improve a patient’s ability to complete everyday tasks and abilities. They can radically improve the quality of life of those with developmental delays and physical or psychological disabilities.
公共卫生
Anything that impacts the health of communities — from the opioid crisis to obesity to climate change — is public health. By promoting wellness, your goal would be to promote ways to keep people healthy rather than treating them once they are ill.
心理学
With a BA or BS 心理学 degree, you can dive immediately into full-time work after graduation, pursuing one of many careers that put your empathy and expertise to use. Or, earn your master's degree and license to become a licensed therapist or counselor. (Career mentorship is a key component of this program; our 教师 will help plan the best path for you.)
