About Health Sciences
The Health Sciences (HS) Division at Sinclair Community College educates the students of the communities we serve to become competent and compassionate health professionals through the use of cutting-edge technology, health and wellness activities, evidence-based practice and inter-professional initiatives.
Promoting health and wellness, the Health Sciences (HS) division has earned a strong reputation for preparing professionals to encourage healthy lifestyles, assess levels of wellness and treat compromised health. Students should recognize that there are inherent risks associated with working in the fields of health sciences, including but not limited to, exposure to communicable diseases.
Our division offers a variety of courses, certifications and degrees in many healthcare occupations. With new admissions options, improved waitlisting and streamlined transferability, our division ensures you the ability to achieve your goals with ease.
