The Master of Arts in Applied Archaeology at California State University, San Bernardino is a professionally-oriented program designed to prepare students for middle- and upper-level careers in the archaeological sector of the cultural resource management (CRM) industry.
 
The program provides training in anthropological archaeology with a focus on developing a solid background in archaeological method and theory combined with practical experience in field and laboratory studies. Students are then trained on how to use that background in an applied setting through courses focused on CRM regulations and practice, along with on-the-job training through an internship with a federal or state agency, a private firm, or a tribal entity that conducts archaeological investigations in the context of CRM.

The Master of Science in Health Services Administration is appropriate for students preparing to become health service administrators or managers in hospitals, health maintenance organizations, medical group clinic managers, nursing homes, public health departments, state and federal health agencies, military health services, or other health service organizations.

In addition, the university offers a limited number of summer classes. Applicants who do not have a health science background may take prerequisites for admission. These typically include introductory courses in health sciences and an introductory statistics course.
