Arts and Sciences Education
Arts and Sciences incorporates robust instruction and dedicated support into an organized effort focused on student success in a wide range of academic disciplines. In their Arts and Sciences courses, students are invited to engage in deepening their understanding of life, meaning, purpose, and knowledge. Attention is given to helping students continue to develop analytical and critical thinking skills, communication and collaboration skills, as well as forming a well-rounded perspective on life and learning. Whether students are seeking to pursue transfer opportunities beyond an associate’s degree, or to enter the workforce with professional and technical training, we are highly committed to preparing students who will embody the core values of excellence, integrity, and unity in everything they do. Faculty and staff within ASE unit are eager to help guide students along their chosen pathways to become life-long learners and effective leaders of families, communities, and society.
Health Sciences
The mission of the Health Science programs is to provide high quality healthcare education and career pathways for students and graduates to best serve the service region and industry partners.
Health Sciences hosts the ENMU-Roswell Training Center and the Regional Medical Simulation Center.
The ENMU-Roswell Training Center, authorized by the American Heart Association, is dedicated to providing quality Emergency Cardiac Care to New Mexico. All classes are available through the Roswell Campus. Additionally, these classes are being taught throughout New Mexico through our network of qualified instructors. These classes can be provided to agencies at their site.
The Regional Medical Simulation Center, a high-fidelity medical simulation center, is a state-of-the art facility that consists of a control room and four simulation rooms with high fidelity mannequins. These simulated hospital or emergency home settings are designed to enhance student engagement and improve their clinical decision-making skills. Each simulation room provides audio-visual professional recording capabilities to assist instructors in debriefing students in the classroom. Simulations are a great tool for ENMU-Roswell students and community healthcare providers to improve health outcomes.
The programs in the Health Sciences include certificates and degrees preparing students for a career in healthcare. Many of the credentials available to students are designed to build one on top of another, a process called stacking, in order for the graduates to obtain a position as quickly as possible while creating a pathway to more advanced certifications, licenses, and degrees. Students may complete degrees in Fire Science, Medical Assisting, Nursing, Occupational Therapy Assistant, Paramedic, and Respiratory Therapy. Students may also obtain certificates in Emergency Medical Technician-Basic/Intermediate/Advanced, Medical Assisting, Medical Scribe, Nursing Assisting, Paramedic, and Phlebotomy. Many of the certificate and degree programs prepare students to sit for a state, national certification, or licensure exam upon completion of required coursework.
Students in many of our programs are given the opportunity to enhance individual learning through the use of state-of-the-art medical simulation equipment. The simulation experience can reduce medical errors, improve clinical decision-making skills and enhances student engagement, all of which improve the quality of care provided by our students.
Because of ongoing changes in accreditation and educational requirements in many healthcare fields, this catalog applies to all students entering or reentering the Health Sciences programs or classes during the effective dates of this catalog.
While attending ENMU-Roswell, students are encouraged to consult with faculty, academic directors, and advisors, as well as the institution they will attend after graduation to ensure that courses taken here will transfer to the particular programs they have chosen.
