UIC College of Applied Health Sciences

UIC College of Applied Health Sciences We envision a world in which every person can live a healthy and self-determined life.

We are nationally recognized for our academics and research focused on illness and injury prevention and rehabilitation, as well as healthcare technology. And our groundbreaking Institute on Disability and Human Development completes us. Through the IDHD, a federally designated University Center for Excellence, we recognize the ways in which society and culture enable or “dis-able” us to live the

lives we choose for ourselves. We act against limitations through research, advocacy, education and outreach. It’s that unique blend—research, education and action to influence prevention, rehabilitation and culture—that sharpens our vision, improves our knowledge and helps us foster a society in which all people can live equally well.
