Biological Sciences
The Allied Health Track at Kutztown University is designed to help students prepare for further education in a variety of health-related fields including, but not limited to, the following: physical therapy, physician assistant, pharmacy, laboratory technology, occupational therapy, optometry, and chiropractic. We are proud that our small program cultures great success in a relatively small number of students thanks to faculty in the Department developing a close relationship with students creating a collegial and non-competitive atmosphere.
We are proud of the successes of our Allied Health graduates, and below we provide an abbreviated list of graduate programs where Kutztown students have matriculated and employers where our students are making a significant contribution:
