Health science students are immersed in practical, hands-on learning opportunities that allow them to explore health science fields within the liberal arts.

Offering a variety of courses that are prerequisites for many of the health professional schools, Wittenberg has a distinguished track record of students getting into professional schools in a variety of health fields.

Most careers in the health field require graduate level education at either the master's or doctoral level in order to become a licensed, practicing caregiver (physician, dentist, optometrist, chiropractor, pharmacist, physician assistant, physical therapist, nurse, etc.). The health science minor is designed to broadly prepare students for matriculation into one of these programs as well as offer an interdisciplinary perspective to students interested in other fields (e.g., health administration).

The health science minor has two major components:

Broad-based coursework familiarizes students with both the basic science and interdisciplinary nature of health science, as well as tailor the minor to their own specific interests.  The minor gives students the option of taking courses from biology; communication; economics; English; health, fitness and sport; honors; languages; philosophy; psychology; religion; and theatre and dance.

Significant professional experience allows students to conduct an in-depth exploration of a health-related topic that is of interest to them.
