Course Sequence Description

As stated in the description for the associate of science in general science on page 104, students who want to major in a health science, such as nursing, pharmacy, dental hygiene, nuclear medicine imaging, radiography, physician’s assistant, physical or occupational therapy, may apply their associate’s degree requirements towards a degree in the areas mentioned.

In an attempt to better guide the student, a list of courses offered here at the UNM-Valencia Campus that can be applied in each of various health professions is provided. Not all courses listed are required for admission to a program. Students are cautioned, however, to meet with a Student Services or science faculty advisor to ensure that the courses taken apply towards a particular health profession.
