Health Professions

The Health Professions Department at Missoula College prepares students to become competent, caring, ethical professionals and provides the skills and opportunities to jumpstart careers in healthcare.

The ideal Health Professions student is one who thinks critically and independently, who cares about others, whose behavior is guided by ethical values, and who is prepared for lifelong learning and leadership in their profession.

The programs listed in the "Programs" tab share many pre-requisite courses, employ an inter-professional model of learning, and all make use of clinical rotations. During these rotations, students work at healthcare facility partners alongside licensed professionals with real patients to develop their skills and confidence.

Admission to many of these programsrequire a separate application and can be competitive, so it is important to meet with an advisor early and learn more about your chosen field of study and how to succeed.
