Description

The first healthcare college in the state of Nebraska, Clarkson College in Omaha grants bachelor’s, master’s and associate’s degrees in select areas of the healthcare field.

Clarkson’s Health Care Business division awards bachelor’s and master’s degrees in fields like Health Care Administration and Health Information Administration.

Nursing, Physical Therapy Assisting, Medical Imaging and Radiologic Technology are some of the degrees available at the associate’s level.

In an attempt to make its classes available to as many as possible, Clarkson also offers classes online.

Student life organizations provide additional support for its career-oriented students through professional clubs such as the Student’s Nursing Association.
