We are CHHS.
The College of Health and Human Sciences (CHHS) transforms students’ lives through active, engaged learning and hands-on research with a world-class faculty. Our students participate in clinicals, practicums and field experiences that combine classroom and real-world experiences. We create new knowledge to solve real world problems and produce graduates who are flexible, outward looking and career ready.
Your support is an investment in the people and potential of NIU.
We have a proud history of preparing future caregivers, service providers and researchers. We rely on your gifts to help students’ dreams come true. These funds help students continue their coursework, travel to conferences to present research, and participate in study abroad programs. Your contributions are also used to keep our classrooms and laboratory equipment up to date, which is crucial to preparing our graduates for job success.
Huskies United changes lives at NIU and beyond.
When you help any of our programs, you are also contributing to the health and happiness of the individuals our alumni serve. Your gift helps tomorrow’s audiologists, physical therapists, public health workers, speech-language pathologists, medical laboratory scientists, nurses, dieticians, early childhood educators, marriage and family therapists, and other health and human sciences leaders.
Unleash the potential.
