Bachelor's of Health Sciences - Second Degree - Public Health (Optional Co-op)

Program Description

NOTE: This program is partly delivered in-class and several courses are offered exclusively online.

A student whose program of study is more than 50% online is not eligible for the PGWP. The Faculty is not able to guarantee that the percentage of online courses will fall below 50%.

The post-diploma Bachelor of Health Sciences will help students build on their existing health-related diploma education and work experience by adding an appreciation for population health, including health policy and promotion, while adding skills in health research, program evaluation and leadership. This exciting new program is offered on the Calgary Campus with evening and weekend classes, and via traditional delivery on the Lethbridge Campus.

The number of courses offered via online delivery may vary and exceed 50% of the program for some students. Prospective international students interested in this program are advised to contact the International Centre before submitting an application to this program.
