Starting in fall 2022, Daytona State College will add another new concentration, healthcare management, to its stable of bachelor's degrees.
The new program is in response to one of the fastest-growing occupations, particularly in aging Volusia and Flagler counties, college officials said.
"It's a growth rate of 30.1%, which is much faster than average," said Colin Chesley, associate vice president who oversees the College of Health and Public Services at Daytona State College. “The reasons for that are because of the aging population, the longer life expectancy and expansion of services.”
