The Department of Health Sciences strives to be a leader in the generation, dissemination and application of knowledge that advances the sciences and practice of our integrated health-related disciplines. We build and sustain academic programs that meet current and emergent needs of the health care community. The Department of Health Sciences is comprised of two undergraduate programs, medical laboratory science and respiratory therapy, and a graduate program in applied health physiology. Each program provides a curriculum that prepares graduates for national certification in their fields of study. The Department of Health Sciences students must have an aptitude for science and a good working knowledge of chemistry, biology, physiology, math and microbiology. During the first two years of each undergraduate program, students take prerequisite and General Education courses. Admission into each of the undergraduate programs is a two-step process that includes both admission to Salisbury University and acceptance into the upper-division professional program. Program admission is competitive, and it is highly recommended that students wishing to pursue the degree seek academic advisement early. Information about admission policies can be found within the University’s catalog. The last two years comprise the professional core, offering courses in the major with student laboratories accompanied by rotations through clinical facilities. The courses prepare students to practice in laboratory science or respiratory care under the guidance and supervision of professionals during internships in “real-world†environments. All courses applied to the major must be completed with grades of C or better. Except for GEOG 204, 219, 319, 414 and GEOL 206 the core courses may be taken in any order and a student may register for more than one in a given semester. The Department of Geography and Geosciences recommends that the lower-division core courses (GEOG 201, 204, 219 and GEOL 103) be completed prior to GEOG 414.
