ue Master of Science in Health Sciences program is designed for students who wish to develop advanced knowledge

and skills in health care. It is composed of an 18-credit core, a 15-credit area of specialization, and a 3-credit capstone

course. ue required core courses are designed to help students develop critical competencies relevant to various branches

of the health sciences, such as communication, ethical reasoning, and leadership. ?e core courses also provide founda-

tional knowledge in research, health care policy, and statistics. ?ere are three options to choose from for specialization:

health professions education, public health, health care informatics, as well as a no-specialization option.

?e Health Professions Education specialization is designed to address the growing demand for allied health professionals and the shortage of faculty pre- pared to teach in allied health programs.
