Mesa State Department of Health Sciences currently consists of three different healthcare professional programs: Nursing, Radiologic Technology and Emergency Medical Services. These programs seek to educate and train a diverse scope of students who, upon graduation, will be equipped with the skills and proficiency to deliver a broad range of high-quality, culturally competent care to individuals, families, and communities.

The educational curriculum of these programs include a wide variety of teaching methods including the use of fully equipped skills labs, high-tech simulation mannequins, and clinical placements in a variety of health care organizations and rural hospitals. These unique educational delivery systems provide students with the opportunity to master course content and skills while gaining valuable hands-on experience.

Our career ladder approach to learning allows healthcare professionals to continue their education to the next level, while maintaining their employment in healthcare. The Department of Health Sciences has also reached out to rural communities in the region by delivering selected coursework via online and distance learning technologies.

We are also dedicated to preparing the “next generation” of healthcare professional through our innovative hands-on M*A*S*H Camp, which is offered every summer for middle school students interested in health careers.
