Students majoring in health prepare to teach others about healthy living. The program in teacher licensure, leading to State of Minnesota teaching certification, and the Community Health program both offer academic foundation, professional preparation, student teaching/internship experiences, and a learning environment conducive to personal application of health goals.
Both programs also provide sound academic preparation for entry into health related master's degree programs. Additional course work in computers or a foreign language is advisable. Graduate study is recommended for students pursuing careers beyond entry level positions.
