Why Applied Biological Health Sciences At USK?

Applied Biological Health Sciences (ABHS) at the University of Saint Katherine provides a gateway to a career in healthcare. Not only is healthcare one of the largest and fastest-growing sectors of the economy, being a healthcare worker can bring pride and satisfaction in helping other people. Many ABHS students will apply for graduate programs such as medicine, nursing, physical therapy, chiropractic, or pharmacy. Others will start their career directly after graduation, leveraging the skills and experiences they have gained at USK.

Alyssa grew up in San Diego County, where she attended a Christian high school. She thought she would probably thrive at a smaller college with a lot of faculty-student interaction, and she was right. Now a senior at USK, Alyssa has taken at least one lab class every single semester and has been on the Dean’s List the whole time. Faculty members love her diligence and optimism!
