It's often said that building a strong future starts with building strong communities. For over a century, community colleges in the United States have been working to do just that--especially those offering programs in allied health and health sciences. Alternately known as institutes, technical colleges, junior colleges or just colleges, community colleges often have allied health and health sciences-related Schools or Divisions, but there are also colleges specializing in allied health and health sciences. Even community colleges specializing in other fields, such as business, may offer allied health and health sciences programs.
Community colleges offer a very different post-secondary education than universities. Not only are they generally much less expensive, they usually have smaller classes, shorter programs, and a more hands-on, skills-based approach. 2-year associate's degrees and 1- to 2-year academic and pre-professional diplomas and certificates mean you can qualify for certain professional certifications right away, enter the job market, or transfer to a university program. Some community college degree options in allied health and health sciences include Associate of Science (AS) and Associate of Applied Science (AAS) with specializations in emergency medical sciences, surgical technology, nuclear medicine technology, dental hygiene, and more. Found across the country, community colleges mean you can study close to home in your own community or experience somewhere new.
