Why Health Sciences at Stetson University?

Stetson's Health Sciences program offers tailored academic pathways for students. Rather than following a one-size-fits-all pre-health curriculum, you'll complete coursework aligned with the prerequisites and expectations of your intended graduate or professional program.

Hands-on learning is enhanced by modern laboratory facilities and Visible Body augmented-reality courseware, which allow you to explore interactive 3D anatomical models in the classroom.
