Texas Tech HSC recognized as top online college

LUBBOCK – Texas Tech University’s Health Sciences Center (HSC) was ranked 24th on Edudemic’s list of the Top 25 Online Colleges in the state of Texas. Furthermore, it was the only health science center to be recognized in the whole list.

There were 488 schools evaluated in order to identify the best online program in Texas. The list was decided after looking at the cost of tuition, academic support, retention of information, graduation rates, program offerings and course diversity for each course examined.

The HSC was recognized for its efforts in diverse online education options and student support offered in the programs.

HSC currently offers nine programs that students can complete online and do not have to be on location to participate in. These programs include clinical services, management and registered nurse courses to clinical laboratory sciences for bachelor’s degrees.

The online service also includes master’s programs, which vary from clinical practice management, nursing education, nursing administration and rehabilitation counseling.

“We are the only health sciences center on the list, which means we are a top choice for prospective students seeking a health care education, graduate or bachelor’s degree without the traditional classroom,” said Jessica Bagwell, senior editor of the HSC Office of Communications and Marketing.
