Compassion Meets Innovation

Healthcare is evolving, and so are we. At York College, the Dr. Donald E. and Lois J. Myers School of Nursing and Health Professions is creating opportunities across 8 majors, 4 minors, and 4 graduate programs for students to engage in research and be at the forefront of the healthcare field.

“I have been fortunate enough to have different opportunities to engage with the community, and that was a big thing that I was looking for when I went to a college.”

What Can You Do with a Degree in Health Sciences?

When we say the answers are numerous, it’s not an exaggeration. You can work in a hospital setting, clinical research, healthcare administration, marketing, education, or even public service.

Hands on, from day one.

Students prepare for careers that support wellness in their communities. Our liberal arts approach to healthcare and health promotion education means that our students embrace not only the scientific understanding necessary for these roles — they also learn how to work with real patients and clients.
