CEDAR FALLS, Iowa – The University of Northern Iowa is offering a new opportunity for students interested in a career in health and helping. Health & Human Sciences Visit Day will take place on Thursday, Nov. 9, allowing incoming freshmen or transfer students to learn more about the university’s many majors and pre-professional health tracks, including the new Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) program.

At the event, students and parents will get a chance to explore programs and ask questions about targeted career paths. After a welcome by Brenda Bass, dean of UNI’s College of Social & Behavioral Sciences, attendees will hear from a student panel and admissions staff, and then head off to sessions targeted to their major or career of interest.
