The School of Health and Wellness

Our Philosophy

The School of Health and Wellness prepares students to become lifelong

learners who understand the importance of balancing physical,

mental, and social health. Our students will be exposed to academic experiences inside and outside the

classroom that will serve as an introduction to careers in the

health and wellness field.
