Health Sciences, B.s. in Saint Louis University

Saint Louis University's undergraduate degree in health sciences is a path for students interested in entering clinically related health fields or for students interested in health informatics and health data management fields. It also provides a solid scientific and health-oriented curriculum for professional or graduate education. The goal of many students in the health sciences program is to become prepared for professional and research careers in the rapidly changing world of health, with special emphasis on the holistic context in which health care is delivered. Students in the health information management concentration are specifically prepared for diverse career opportunities in health information fields and to take the Registered Health Information Administrator (RHIA) nationally recognized credentialing exam offered by the American Health Information Management Association.

• The program provides a holistic view of health care that serves as a great pre-professional option for students going on to graduate education.
• In addition to learning about health sciences and anatomy and physiology, students will also learn about research methods, health care management, process improvement, health care technology, health care policy and law and more.
• Faculty members provide tremendous mentorship to help the students in every phase of their education.
• Information technology is integrated throughout the curriculum, providing students with hands-on exposure and experience with typical systems utilized in the health care industry.

The health care industry is growing and changing rapidly. A new generation of health professionals will be needed to examine old problems from a fresh perspective and arrive at innovative theories, policies and technologies that address emerging health concerns.

Students prepare for these challenges by offering curricular tracks in pre-medicine, medical scholar, pre-dentistry, pre-physician assistant, pre-pharmacy, pre-physical therapy, pre-occupational therapy, health information management concentration and a general health science curriculum. Each curricular track is optimized to prepare students for both graduate studies and the workforce.
