BACHELOR OF INTERDISCIPLINARY STUDIES
Health Sciences, Electroneurodiagnostics & Neuroscience
The information below focuses on a Bachelor of Interdisciplinary Studies (BIS) degree with 'preset' emphases areas. However, this does not limit your options and we recommend that you visit the BIS website for more information on the variety of opportunites under this degree.
This BIS degree combines Health Sciences, Electroneurodiagnostics and Neuroscience. By the end of the program you will be able to seek certification in Electroneurodiagnositcs (END) from the University of Utah.
DISCOVER
- Flexible course delivery formats are available in a face-to-face settings, online or through independent study
- Learn from our experienced instructors who thoroughly understand the industry
- Develop your education plan around three emphases areas and learn more for less
- Graduate feeling prepared to take the Electroneurodiagnositics national registry examination
LEARN
Through the Health Sciences Bachelor of Integrated Studies degree and the University of Utah partnership electroneurodiagnostics (END) program, you will gain skills in multiple areas applicable to healthcare professionals. These skills will help you to stand out with a focused education around Health Sciences, Electroneurodiagnostics and Neuroscience, including:
- Knowledge of human anatomy and physiology
- Clinical and laboratory skills
- Cognitive and behavioral neuroscience
- Scientific research and application
- Pharmacology
- Research
ACHIEVE
As a Bachelor of Interdisciplinary Studies graduate you can pursue an interdisciplinary career with a diverse skill set.
Once you complete this present BIS program though, you will have the opportunity to take the national registry examination for Electroneurodiagnostics. You can then go on to become an EEG Technologists. EEG techs annual salary varies depending on your location and the organization that you choose to work for, however, starting salaries for this career averages $53,000.
