COLLEGE OF SCIENCES
JOINT ALLIED HEALTH SCIENCE
PROGRAMS
Joint degree programs with The University of Texas Health
Science Center at San Antonio (UTHSCSA) leading to the Bachelor of Science
degree in Clinical Laboratory Sciences are available. A degree in this
allied health program is awarded jointly. Completion of joint program
prerequisites does not guarantee or imply preferential admittance to the
professional phase of the program.
The preclinical curriculum for clinical laboratory sciences (CLS) includes
Core Curriculum requirements, basic science lecture and laboratory courses,
and CLS courses. Clinical laboratory science concepts are introduced throughout
the curriculum, ending in a senior-year clinical practicum at UTHSCSA.
Upon completion of all requirements, the student is eligible to take one
of the clinical laboratory sciences national certification examinations.
Preprofessional Curriculum
Also available are preprofessional courses offering students the opportunity
to prepare for admission to nursing, medical, dental, and other professional
schools.
UTSA offers courses that fulfill the nursing preprofessional curriculum
requirements for The University of Texas Health Science Center at San
Antonio. All coursework listed will transfer to UTHSCSA without any loss
of credit. Specific premedical and predental programs are not offered
at UTSA. Admission requirements for these professional schools are outlined
in a separate section of this catalog. Additional information can be obtained
from the Department of Biology and through the chairman of the Health
Related Professions Advisory Subcommittee of UTSA.
Professional Liability (Malpractice) Insurance Requirement
Allied health students are required by policies of the Board of Regents
of The University of Texas System to show evidence of professional liability
(malpractice) insurance coverage prior to official registration for courses
that involve a clinical situation. Additional information on the requirement
for obtaining such coverage is available from the director of the Department
of Biology
