Tips for success

  • Schedule an appointment with your advisor to create a customized plan.
  • Pay close attention to course periodicity and sequencing. Some courses are only offered in either the fall or spring semesters.
  • IPE 375 serves as the introduction to the Health Services major, and we recommend taking this class first. We also encourage students to take IPE 381 before IPE 475 and to save IPE 575 and IPE 576 for their senior year.
  • Students pursuing the Health Services option must select one of the three emphasis areas. These courses vary by selection and have been noted above as “emphasis area”. Some of these courses may also “double count” as general education requirements.
