School of Nursing and Health Careers
To support an increasing number of health-related careers, CT State offers many academic options for prospective students. Health career professionals collaborate in a variety of health fields to help evaluate, treat and prevent illnesses, and individuals with many different skill levels can be successful in these areas. While some professions involve working directly with patients, others work behind the scenes, playing important roles in the healthcare field.
Students who enjoy helping others, doing hands-on or detailed work, problem-solving, or have an interest in a medical-related field can find an affordable and flexible career solution by earning an associate degree or certificate in one of many allied health fields. Allied health consists of a group of health professionals who work toward the diagnosis and treatment of diseases. These professionals also promote disease prevention and wellness and work to support various healthcare systems.
For students interested in a career in nursing, the Connecticut Community College Nursing Program (CT-CCNP) is an innovative associate degree program of study offered at six campuses. The program serves a diverse population of students, offers excellent clinical sites, and has a thirty-plus-year record of proven success.
For students interested in other health careers, such as laboratory medicine, occupational and physical therapy assistant, respiratory care, and more, we offer degrees, certificates and associate degree programs that, in many cases, can be built upon and lead to a higher degree at our other four-year institutions.
