The increase occurred in most of the college’s 13 departments.
”This growth reflects the college’s ability to help meet
allied health workforce needs in Arkansas. We have accomplished
the increase through a variety of strategies, including a
significant expansion of distance education,” Dean Ronald H.
Winters, Ph.D., said.
The program in nuclear
medicine technology offers all its “lecture” courses via the
Internet. Several other CHRP departments offer one or more
courses online, by interactive video, or on compact disk, making
them accessible to more students.
Founded in 1971,
CHRP offers degree and certificate programs at various levels in
15 professional areas. Graduate and undergraduate enrollment in
the professional programs totals about 500 students. Some
programs are offered only in Little Rock, but many are available
in whole or in part at other locations around Arkansas,
including the UAMS Area Health Education Centers or online via
the Internet to students in Arkansas and other states. All
programs in the college have clinical rotations, which may occur
in a wide variety of settings, such as hospitals, clinics, and
laboratories.
