Popular majors/partial list of majors available :

Medical Technology

Medical Technology involves the study of microorganisms through the examination of body fluids, tissues, cells, chemical content of fluids and blood samples. Medical technology professionals, also known as clinical laboratory scientists, perform routine and complex tests via sophisticated instrumentation to detect, diagnose and treat diseases as well as monitor new patients to ensure quality patient care.

Neuroscience

This study is a multidisciplinary field that includes psychology, computer science, statistics, physics and medicine in the scientific study of the nervous system and its components as well as functional activities at the molecular, cellular, system, behavioral and cognitive levels.

Food Science and Nutrition

This is multidisciplinary study of food and the application of knowledge to the development of food products and processes, the preservation
and storage of foods, and the assurance of food safety and quality. Nutritional Science also examines the effects of food components on the
metabolism, health, performance and disease resistance of humans and animals, including the study of human behaviors related to foods.

Dietetics

This study involves the planning of food and nutrition as well as supervising the preparation and serving of meals. Dieticians also help prevent and treat illnesses by promoting healthy eating habits, scientifically evaluating clients’ diets and suggesting diet medications.

Nursing

Jobs for nurses are abundant worldwide. The shortage of over 300,000 nurses worldwide is expected to grow to over 800,000 in the next 15 to 20 years. BSN (Bachelor of Nursing) is a four-year program that focuses on the practical applications of nursing and expands into the theoretical realms of patient care.

Nanotechnology

This study is the development of new devices, materials and structures that are well below the one micron size scale. Nanotechnology advances enable the development of fundamental building blocks in the electronics, photonics, and materials sectors, sensors, biomimetic
and biocompatible platforms throughout the biomedical and health sector. The science explores the possibilities of detecting molecules
of chemical warfare agents, creating a new generation of computer components, or making medical strides on the molecular level.

Astrophysics

This study focuses on the theoretical and observational study of the structure, properties, and behavior of stars, star systems and clusters, stellar life cycles, and related phenomena. Astrophysicists interpret observational data with the laws of physics and mathematics and include areas in cosmology, plasma kinetics, stellar physics, convolution and non-equilibrium radiation transfer theory, non-Euclidean geometries, mathematical modeling, galactic structure theory and relativistic astronomy.
