The University of Toledo College of Health and Human Services is a multidisciplinary community dedicated to preparing future healthcare and human services professionals. Through nationally accredited programs, hands-on learning experiences, and mentorship from experienced faculty, students gain the knowledge and practical skills needed to make meaningful contributions in their communities and professions.

Our programs prepare graduates for high-demand careers focused on improving health, wellness, and quality of life.

Whether pursuing direct patient care, community advocacy, leadership in healthcare settings, or graduate and professional study, students are supported through collaborative learning and real-world experiences that prepare them for success beyond the classroom.

With locations on both the Health Science and Main Campuses of The University of Toledo, the College offers students expanded opportunities for interdisciplinary learning, clinical experiences, research, and community engagement. Students work alongside professionally credentialed faculty who are committed to student success, innovation, and excellence in teaching and practice.
