Bachelor of Science in Health Science

Transcription

1 Bachelor of Science in Science Bachelor of Science in Science The Bachelor of Science degree in Science is offered at ISU through the Kasiska Division of Sciences and provides several pathways for students, depending on their ultimate educational and career goals. The choice of five different areas of concentration allows students flexibility in meeting their professional goals. The objectives of this multidisciplinary degree are to prepare marketable students for entry-level employment in the health care field and to prepare students for admission to professional schools or graduate programs. Bachelor of Science in Science Core Requirements (0- credits) Students pursuing a Bachelor of Science in Science must complete 8 of the 9 General Education Objectives (a minimum of 6 credits--see the General Education Requirements ( academicinformation/generaleducation) in the Academic Information section of this catalog). Students must also satisfy the core requirements listed below and the requirements for one of the health science concentrations. All graduates of this program will earn a B.S. in Science, irrespective of which concentration is selected. Required Courses ( credits) BIOL 0 & 0L DHS 6 and Lab Evidence Based Research in Sciences HE 00 Promoting Wellness HE/HCA 0 or HO 006 Medical Terminology and Communication Medical Terminology Transfer students may also need to take BIOL 0 and BIOL 0L, which may also partially satisfy General Education Objective.

The credits for these courses are not counted twice if the course was chosen to complete an earlier core area. ANTH 07 Anthropology of Global ANTH 09 Clinical Medical Anthropology COUN 00 Interpersonal Skills in HCA 7 Law and Bioethics HE Patient Education Skills Academic Standards A grade of "C" or better is required in all Bachelor of Science in Science Core and Concentration courses. Concentration Requirements Students must satisfy the requirements for one of the health science concentrations listed below. All graduates will be awarded a B.S. in Science, irrespective of which concentration is selected. Concentration : Science This concentration will prepare students for the challenges of becoming health care professionals in an era of changing focus and priorities. The variety and flexibility of coursework will equip graduates to pursue clinical, non-clinical, and educational opportunities in many settings. In addition to the courses required for the concentration listed below, students must also satisfy the Core Requirements for the Bachelor of Science degree in Science.

Concentration : Pre-Occupational Therapy This concentration will prepare students to apply to a graduate program in occupational therapy. Graduate occupational therapy programs will accept a wide range of undergraduate degrees, but the B.S. in Science with the pre-occupational therapy concentration prepares the student for future practice in health care while efficiently including the prerequisite courses. See the Department of Physical and Occupational Therapy ( coursecat.isu.edu/undergraduate/divisionhealth/physicalandoccupationaltherapy) in the School of Rehabilitation and Communication Sciences in the Kasiska Division of Sciences section of the catalog for detailed information about this concentration.

Students pursuing this concentration will complete General Education Objectives, the B.S. in Science Core courses, and the prerequisite courses for admission into the Occupational Therapy Program during the first three years and will apply for accelerated entry during the fall semester of the rd year. Students who are accepted for accelerated entry (competitive and limited number) will complete the first pre-professional year of the Occupational Therapy Program, while concurrently completing the th and final year of the B.S. in Science. Students would then complete two more years within the graduate Master of Occupational Therapy Program. Students pursuing this concentration who are not accepted into the accelerated cohort may take additional courses during their th year to complete the B.S. in Science and apply to a graduate program in occupational therapy.

Students with an Associate of Applied Science Degree in Paramedic Science may transfer up to a maximum of 0 credits from this degree (all lower division credits). Only credits are needed from the BS in Science Core if BIOL 0 and HCA 0/ HE 0 were completed during the Associate of Science degree. Recommendations also fulfill ISU degree requirements for upper division credits. Electives should be chosen in consultation with advisor. EMS students who take HE courses are required to take HE first. BIOL /BIOL L, BIOL /BIOL L, BIOL, and BIOL meet pre-requisite requirements for Master s in Physician Assistant Studies. Community and Public Non-teaching Minor ( credits) - available for those students with a Community and Public focus (see specific HE course listings in the Community and Public ( coursecat.isu.edu/undergraduate/divisionhealth/communityandpublichealth/ #programstext) section of the Undergraduate Catalog). This minor would meet the elective credits required for the degree. Students must complete all courses within the Community Paramedic Track to be awarded the Community Paramedic designation. Concentration : Occupations Students who have graduated or are enrolled in health occupations' training at the level of an associate degree have the opportunity to pursue a bachelor's degree with an advanced general health science focus when choosing this concentration. A B.S. in Science will satisfy many of the prerequisites for a variety of health science-related graduate programs. See the Occupations' Department ( technology/healthoccupations) in the College of Technology section of the catalog for detailed information about this concentration. The Bachelor of Science (BSHS) degree is offered at ISU through the Kasiska Division of Science and provides several avenues for students to work in health-related professions depending upon the student's ultimate educational and career goals. Students graduating with an AAS or AS are provided the opportunity to apply their associate degree in a health-related field toward graduation requirements for the B.S. in Science and satisfy many of the prerequisites for a variety of health science-related graduate programs. The objective of the Bachelor of Science in Science program with the Occupations' emphasis is to allow students who have graduated or are enrolled in health occupations' training at the level of an associate degree to pursue a bachelor's degree with an advanced general health science focus. This degree provides a curriculum for students who desire an education that can serve as a foundation for additional professional or graduate work in several health science professions, including medicine, dentistry, hospital administration, medical technology, physical therapy, and occupational therapy. All students are encouraged to work closely with an advisor within their associate degree programs to ensure that the courses they plan to take will meet their specific career goals. Degree Requirements: The B.S. in Science degree with the Occupations' emphasis includes the following credit requirements which can be divided into four components: Associate Degree requirements, General Education requirements, B.S. in Science core requirements, and Associate degree/ Occupations' Concentration requirements.

5 Bachelor of Science in Science Associate Degree Requirements: Each student must be a graduate of or be enrolled in a health occupations' program that awards an associate degree.* Students with an Associate of Applied Science (AAS) degree may apply up to a maximum of 0 credits from this degree (all lower division credits) toward the 0 total credit requirement. Students with an Associate of Science (AS) degree in Respiratory Therapy from ISU may apply upper division Respiratory Therapy (RESP) credits to this degree. * Out-of-state associate degrees must be evaluated for meeting the Idaho State Board of Education standards. If the associate degree is over five years old, the degree must be evaluated for currency in the technical field. General Education Requirements: Students pursuing the Bachelor of Science in Science degree must complete eight of the nine General Education Objectives (a minimum of 6 credits--see the General Education Requirements ( described in the Academic Information section of this catalog.) Specific requirements may be listed under individual Occupations' program curricula (choose programs above).
