Colorado Christian University

Health and Medicine at CCU

If you feel called to care for others, explore how the human body works, or pursue a future in healthcare, science, or human performance, you’re not alone and you’re needed. Today’s world is searching for health and medical professionals who are not only highly skilled, but guided by integrity, compassion, and truth. At Colorado Christian University, you can choose from majors in nursing, biology, kinesiology and exercise science, physical education, pre-med, and pre–physician assistant. All programs are grounded in a Christian worldview that honors the dignity and value of every human life.

At CCU, you won’t be asked to choose between faith and science. You’ll be challenged to think deeply, ask meaningful questions, and pursue excellence understanding that your work in health and medicine is ultimately about serving others and stewarding the gifts God has given you.

Compassion and competence
In health and medicine, what you know matters, but who you are matters just as much. At CCU, you’ll develop both. Through hands-on learning, rigorous coursework, and ethical training, you’ll gain the skills and confidence needed for demanding, people-centered professions. At the same time, you’ll be shaped in character, learning to lead with empathy, humility, and purpose.

Whether your future takes you to a hospital, a lab, a classroom, a clinic, or graduate or professional school, you’ll graduate prepared to serve with excellence—ready to make a real difference in the lives of others.

Faculty mentorship
You won’t navigate your journey alone. Your professors at CCU are experienced professionals and dedicated mentors who care about your growth inside and outside the classroom. They’ll challenge you academically, guide you as you prepare for graduate school or professional programs, and help you discern how your calling and career fit together.

Small class sizes mean your professors will know your name, your goals, and your potential. They’ll invest in helping you become the professional and person you’re meant to be.

The CCU difference
Colorado Christian University is a Christ-centered community where your education is about more than earning a degree. Here, learning is transformational. You’ll grow intellectually, spiritually, and personally as you’re equipped to engage the world with wisdom, courage, and faith.

At CCU, you won’t just prepare for a career, you’ll prepare for a life of purpose, service, and impact.
