About the program

Are you interested in a health profession but uncertain about which career path to pursue? The bachelor of science in applied health sciences program will help you explore and connect with WSU Applebaum graduate programs during your very first year here.

As a BSAHS student, you'll build a strong foundation in medical terminology, anatomy and physiology, communication within a health care setting, interdisciplinary patient care, critical thinking and writing, ethics, and diversity across the health science continuum.

Because the BSAHS program is housed alongside WSU Applebaum graduate programs, you'll explore a wide range of health professions while developing the skills and knowledge that will help you take your next step — applying to your preferred program with key prerequisite credits under your belt, or heading straight into your career in a variety of health settings.
