Overview

Within the Health Program, there are four structured specializations that are suited to many students' interests. In addition, there is an option to create a customized specialization in which a student and his/her faculty advisor design a course of study to fit the student's individual needs.

Each specialization requires a cluster of three or four related advanced courses. Frequently, students fulfill the requirements for one specialization and select as electives courses offered in another specialization to strengthen their competency and skills, and enhance their career opportunities.
