My advice for future Health Studies majors would be to focus on the core concepts in the curriculum as it will help guide your future and in choosing a specialization.

The biggest strength of Health Studies is its variety.  The knowledge is helpful in both personal and career settings.

During My time at URI, I was involved in club sports, which was a helpful support system and encouraged me both as an individual and a peer.
