College of Health and Community Well-Being
Kathy Duncan, Interim Dean
Jerry Kernes, Associate Dean
The transformative initiative of our 2020-2025 Strategic Plan is the launch of a new College of Health and Community Well-Being. Graduates from this new University of La Verne college will have the training and skills to apply our core values to the healthcare workforce of the future and will meet a critical need in this region. These core values are ethical decision making, diversity and inclusion, lifelong learning, and civic and community engagement.
A number of disciplines and majors that currently exist in various colleges and units across the University of La Verne will come together this spring to form the core of the new College of Health and Community Well-Being. These programs include kinesiology, athletic training, physician assistant practice, clinical psychology, marriage and family therapy, child life, health administration, and various certificate programs. About 1,100 students are enrolled in these programs, studying with 34 full-time professors.
We are also working on starting new academic majors, disciplines, and programs in the college. The first will be a fully online RN to bachelor of science in nursing (BSN) program to assist currently employed registered nurses (who do not have a bachelor’s degree) to advance in their careers. Additional majors, disciplines, and programs in nursing and other fields will be phased in over the following years.
