Health Studies and Health Adminstration at Siena

 

An opportune minor for a major growth area

 

Minor offered
 
Health care currently represents at least one-sixth of the American economy and shows signs of definite growth. The magnitude and diversity of the American health care system provide numerous career opportunities for students from a variety of academic backgrounds.
 
With continued growth in medical technologies, as well as changing demographics, students combining a health studies or health studies administration minor with a social science, science or business major will be more marketable to graduate programs and jobs in health care including:
  • Medicine
  • Nursing
  • Public health
  • Hospital administration
  • Epidemiology
  • Insurance
  • Health research
  • Marketing
  • Medical sociology
  • Medical social work
 
Students will add a cohesive core of courses that focus on significant aspects of health care issues in American society and can also focus their internship goals toward related fields.
