About the School of Health Sciences

Hunter’s Institute of Health Sciences, dedicated to the educational preparation of a range of health care professionals, opened its doors on East 106th Street in 1968. Six years later, the Institute became the School of Health Sciences and moved downtown to the Brookdale Health Science Center at East 25^th Street, located in close proximity to many of New York’s major health care facilities. The Hunter College School of Health Sciences offers an undergraduate program in Medical Laboratory Sciences and a graduate program in Communication Sciences (Speech-Language Pathology). The health professions complex provides students with fully equipped laboratories, computer and media facilities, a speech and hearing clinic and a library, as well as recreational facilities, a cafeteria and an on-site dormitory. Hunter’s School of Health Sciences prepares liberal arts educated professionals to enter and advance in health-related careers. These professionals will provide evaluation and clinical management of health-related conditions. The school’s programs of study provide unique educational, research, and clinical and community service oriented opportunities to students.
