Health & Wellness

Health & Wellness courses are typically elective in nature, with no standard curriculum in 4YR and 2YR institutions. The courses most often pertain to a major or minor in a Health Care area of interest. The healthcare field encompasses numerous professions, including but not limited to nursing, dentistry, physical therapy, optometry, and podiatry. Degrees in healthcare include courses in biology, psychology, anatomy, and other physical and social sciences. Health education is a social science that draws from the biological, environmental, psychological, physical and medical sciences to promote health and prevent disease, disability and premature death through education-driven voluntary behavior change activities. Health education is the development of individual, group, institutional, community and systemic strategies to improve health knowledge, attitudes, skills and behavior--
