In addition, many students use the program to prepare themselves for graduate studies in health administration and other related disciplines. The program is uniquely structured to help practicing health professionals build upon their two year professional degree or credential while at the same time accommodating the more traditional four-year student. The curriculum is organized so that students may tailor their studies in any one of five emphases: Health Services Administration, Health Information Management (HIM), Health Promotion, Long-Term Care Administration, and Health Information Technology. All study emphases lead to a Bachelor's Degree except for Health Information Technology, which leads to an Associate of Applied Science degree, and Healthcare Coding and Weber State University 2012-2013 Catalog
