The college hosts its annual Health Science Open House for students and the community to explore its programs and find a rewarding career.

“There is a pressing need for highly competent healthcare professionals in a variety of fields. As Central Texas continues to expand, we remain committed to filling the needs of our healthcare partners and community,” says Dr. Nina Almasy, ACC Dean of Health Sciences. “There are so many career opportunities out there in health care.
