Accelerated opportunities

We know you’re ready to start making a difference. That’s why our Health Sciences program offers two pathways for earning your dual degree — jumpstarting your journey from classroom to career.

BS-MPH

Through our Community Health Education track, eligible students can begin earning their master’s in Public Health (MPH) during their senior year. After completing the remaining Health Sciences requirements, students spend a fifth year finishing their MPH.

BS-MS in Human Nutrition

With a concentration in Nutrition, qualifying students can pursue their dual degree in Human Nutrition — beginning graduate-level classes during their senior year before returning for a fifth year to complete their MS studies.

One of the many things I loved about UB was the loving staff. They were always there to ensure you enjoyed your time on campus and stayed on track with your academic progress. Pairing this with various engaging health science courses made my time at UB memorable and fun!
