The College of Allied Health Sciences plays an increasingly important role in our modern health environment. With the aging baby boomer generation and an increasing life expectancy around the world, expectation for excellent health care services is at an all-time high.

The College of Allied Health Sciences (CAHS) began as the Center for Health-Related Programs in 1995 and was granted college status in March of 1998. CAHS is part of the University of Cincinnati Academic Health Center with the College of Medicine, the James L. Winkle College of Pharmacy and the College of Nursing. The four colleges work together to promote interprofessional learning, which has become an emergent, crucial topic in the health professions nationally due to evidence that team-based care produces superior patient outcomes.

The College of Allied Health Sciences is involved in enhancing and improving the quality of life for people everywhere by discovering, teaching and applying knowledge related to health sciences.
