Health Sciences, AS PURPOSE: This two-year degree prepares students to transfer to a four-year college and major in a health sciences program. Examples include nursing, dental hygiene, exercise science, and radiation science. This degree is not intended for students who are interested in attending medical or dental school. CREDENTIALS: An Associate of Science (AS) degree is a major related to an area such as business administration, engineering, science, and social sciences that takes 2 years for full time students to complete. Students receiving an AS degree intend to transfer to four-year colleges. TRANSFER INFORMATION: This program is designed for transfer. Students should consult with their advisors to ensure that they select general electives that best prepare them for the specific requirements of their intended transfer college or university programs of study. More information can also be found at www.brightpiont.edu/academics/transfer/ PROGRAM REQUIREMENTS AND SPECIAL CONDITIONS: SStudents must meet Brightpoint admission requirements. New students should work with their New Student Navigator to get ready for their first semester. They can also email getstarted@brightpoint.edu for assistance. Students planning to complete a BSN or BS in a health science field should meet with their faculty advisor to decide on the courses that best match the requirements of their intended transfer institution. PROGRAM OUTCOMES: By the completion of this program, students will be expected to demonstrate an intermediate level of competency in the following skills: Demonstrate a fundamental understanding of introductory concepts related to human anatomy and physiology. Explain the general characteristics of microorganisms and their relationships to individual and community health. Evaluate and communicate the relationship among nutrition, human development, and lifestyle on disease prevention. Interpret medical terms and abbreviations. Apply quantitative skills relevant to future practitioners in health science careers.
