The goal of delivering services through a team of health specialists working cooperatively characterizes allied health disciplines. The faculty attempts to achieve this goal by providing an academic environment which students study the theory underlying practice, gain positive attitudes toward their contribution to health care and achieve clinical competence through supervised application of knowledge. Allied Health Programs Students enrolled at Lamar University-Beaumont must submit an Application for Admission to the Department and an Institute of Technology application. Applicants must pass all sections of the TASP to be admitted to a program. Applicants are urged to follow application instructions carefully to ensure processing by program admission committees.
Enrollment is based on availability of clinical sites.
Additional costs above tuition and fees are required in all Allied Health programs. Uniforms, equipment and instruments, liability insurance, health examinations, immunizations, and transportation to clinical facilities are the responsibility of the student. Financial aid is available to eligible students. See Financial Aid and Award section of this bulletin. Liability insurance and health examination are required each year of the program.
