Students may pursue careers in worksite wellness, hospital-based wellness programs, community health centers, retirement and nursing home wellness programs, commercial and not-for-profit health, fitness, and recreation centers, and other related areas.

For examples of Health and Wellness Careers please consult the What You Can Do With A Degree in Health & Wellness Infographic and the Careers in Health and Wellness Promotion handout.

Students who receive a B.S. with a major in Health and Wellness Promotion may choose to pursue graduate and/or professional studies in areas such as Health Promotion, Exercise Physiology, Nutrition, Health Education, Gerontology, Public Health, Allied Health, and Medicine. Students interested in graduate school should be aware of additional course work required for admission to these programs that may not be required for the Health and Wellness Promotion major.
