Curricula

General

The degree programs in the School of Allied Health Professions represent a blend of basic, clinical and social sciences. All degree programs are structured to present the basic principles, concepts and philosophies of the field of specialization, yet are flexible to allow for individual student capabilities and interests. The general goal of the school is to provide the student with the educational opportunities to develop as a professionally competent health practitioner and teacher. To the extent possible, common learning experiences will be provided for all students registered in the School of Health Professions with students in the other professional schools of the Health Sciences Center. It is anticipated that such an approach will improve the eventual working relationships within the health field as well as the delivery of health services.
