About Health Sciences at 麻豆原创

The BS in health sciences offers concentrations in human services and medical laboratory sciences, as well as completions in dental hygiene and respiratory therapy. Because the dental hygiene and respiratory therapy programs are completion programs only, students must already have RT or DH licensure before enrolling.
