Joseph Mistovich
Department Chair

Welcome to the Department of Health Professions. I am Joe Mistovich, the department chairperson. The department offers associate and baccalaureate degrees and a master's degree program for future members of the health care delivery and health education team. Associate degree programs are offered in dental hygiene, emergency medical technology, medical assisting technology, clinical laboratory technician, and histotechnology. Baccalaureate programs are offered in allied health, community health, school health, clinical laboratory science (medical technology), and respiratory care. A master's degree program in Health and Human Services offers two tracks: health promotion and administration for health and human service professionals.

Admission to all programs except medical assisting technology, community health, and school health is on a restricted basis, since only a limited number of students can be accommodated. Detailed information on admission criteria and closing dates for application is available in the Department of Health Professions, the Bitonte College of Health and Human Services Dean's Office, and the Admissions Office.
