ABOUT THE SCHOOL OF
SCIENCE & HEALTH
If your career plans include the health-care
professions, scientific research or fields from
pharmaceutical management to counseling psychology,
Philadelphia University can connect you with some powerful
programs, people and opportunities.
Academic programs in the School of Science and Health are
designed to give you the power to succeed. You’ll work
closely with top research scientists on our faculty or with
health-care professionals in the region. Courses in writing,
humanities and social sciences will show you how to take a
global, interdisciplinary view. And, you’ll get your hands
on sophisticated tools like electrophoresis equipment,
atomic absorption spectrometer, gas chromatography and mass
spectrometers.
