As a Health, Wellness and Occupational Studies major at UNE, students learn how to help others improve their physical and emotional wellness through engagement in occupation and health promotion. Students gain a strong foundation in biological and social sciences, study human occupation in depth, and learn how to intervene to improve wellness. The HWOS undergraduate experience at UNE provides stud

The program provides solid preparation for students to go on to study Occupational Therapy, and the flexibility to prepare for other fields of study such as Disability Studies, Occupational Science, Counseling and other allied health professions.
