KSU Wellstar College of Health & Human Services

Exercise Science & Sport Mgmt | Health Promotion & Physical Ed | Social Work & Human Svcs | Nursing | Children & Family Programs | AILSG | Center for Human Sport Performance & Wellbeing Kennesaw State University's Wellstar College of Health and Human Services was created for the purpose of combining a variety of disciplines that

have as their central focus the health, physical fitness, and human service needs of our community. The programs offered by the College of Health and Human Services include Exercise Science, Health and Physical Education, Human Services, Nursing, Sport Management, and graduate programs in Exercise Science, Nursing, and Social Work. As public service and traditional health care jobs become more closely related, we believe that students are best educated in an academic environment where they can interact with a variety of disciplines in a way that approximates the real world of work. Our students have the opportunity not only to interact with highly qualified, well-respected faculty but also to involve themselves with a wide variety of community activities from student teaching, to clinical projects, to internships, to community service projects, to interact with community experts. We offer a "real-life" as opposed to an "ivory tower" education, and the success of our graduates in the job market is evidence of this.

Welcome, MSPO Class of 2028!

The Wellstar College of Health and Human Services proudly celebrated the 6th cohort of students in Master of Science in Prosthetics and Orthotics (MSPO) program at this year's White Coat Ceremony.

Surrounded by family, friends, faculty, staff, and fellow students, 24 future prosthetists and orthotists officially began their professional journey. We were also honored to hear from keynote speaker Gerald Stark, whose inspiring remarks helped mark this important milestone.

Congratulations, Class of 2028! We look forward to watching you grow, lead, and shape the future of O&P.

Meet Saloni, a May 2026 graduate of Kennesaw State University’s Master of Social Work program and a member of the July 2026 Georgia cohort of the Kaiser Permanente Mental Health Career Accelerator.

The Kaiser Permanente Mental Health Career Accelerator, offered through the National Council for Mental Wellbeing, is helping address the nation’s mental health and substance use treatment workforce shortage by supporting emerging professionals as they pursue clinical careers. The program provides financial assistance, professional development, and other resources to help reduce barriers to clinical licensure and strengthen the behavioral health workforce.

For Saloni, discovering the program on her graduation day came at the perfect time. This opportunity was about more than advancing her own career. To Saloni, it was about helping build a mental health workforce that is prepared to meet the needs of individuals, families, and communities.

We’re proud to celebrate Saloni’s achievement and her commitment to expanding access to quality mental health and substance use care.

Is better health just a few steps away?

In this episode of Research Matters, we talk with Professor of Exercise Science Bob Buresh, who leads an interdisciplinary team investigating how walking can be a transformative, accessible, and cost-effective approach to fighting obesity.

The research aims to confirm initial findings suggesting that increased step counts correlate with improved health indicators, such as reduced body fat and lower insulin levels. Once proven, the predictive model could revolutionize patient care. Instead of prescribing rigorous exercise routines or medications, healthcare professionals might recommend achievable daily step goals.
