The Institute for Health Sciences is an RVHS magnet program designed to provide learning opportunities and real world experiences in health science-related fields through a rigorous academic program enriched with interactive experiences based on the nationally recognized Project Lead The Way. The Institute is divided into two programs. The BioHealth Sciences for highly achieving honor students preparing to become medical professionals while the Allied Health Sciences program is geared toward motivated college preparatory and honor students interested in the health sciences community. Both programs offer students an opportunity to earn dual credit for seminar classes through Clemson University.
