Health Sciences Broad Field — Associate in Science Degree (60 credits)

About the Program

This program provides students a broad base of general education coursework relevant to the field of health sciences, in preparation to transfer to a broad array of health sciences majors at a college or university. This degree program is designed to fulfill health science baccalaureate requirements at all MnSCU system universities offering related degrees.

The degree is designed to transfer to all system universities offering related baccalaureate programs through a statewide articulation agreement. The Health Sciences Broad Field Statewide Articulation Agreement has been approved by all system universities. Even with this agreement, students must consult with both Century college and transfer university counselors/advisors early and often, for guidance and planning regarding the requirements of the various health sciences baccalaureate programs to facilitate the most efficient transition and transfer. Transfer schools and majors in the articulation agreement are listed on the Program Guide.
