Welcome to the College of Health
The College of Health offers a wide range of programs revolving around a central theme: the improvement of the health and well-being for individuals, families, organizations and communities. All programs in the College of Health provide direct application of a knowledge base to the problems of today’s society. Our faculty are oriented toward service and applied research so that all programs focus on applying knowledge to the solution of everyday problems.
The college consists of the schools of nursing, social work and human performance and recreation and the departments of community health sciences, medical technology, nutrition and food systems and speech and hearing sciences. These seven academic units represent over 200 faculty and staff members and about 3,000 students. Traditional classes are offered on campuses in Hattiesburg, the Gulf Coast and Meridian. Students may also enroll in on-line coursework and international studies.
Graduates of our programs are prepared to step into professional careers recognized for enhancing the quality of life, thanks in part to our excellent faculty, unique laboratory experiences and internships or other fieldwork.
