Answer:

two years of science

Step-by-step explanation:

"Health Sciences" is a degree that is pursued by people who want to work in the healthcare industry. It is common to finish a 4-year degree program (Bachelor in Science) in relation to it. However, the first two years of the program can already teach the individual the "basics of health sciences," such as handwashing techniques, mobilizing a patient, glove techniques and so on. He will earn the "Healthcare Associate's Degree" upon graduation. This means that he can already start working as a medical assistant, caregiver, pharmacy technician, etc. If he wants to be a nurse, for example, he may pursue another two years in order to earn the "Bachelor of Science Degree in Nursing."
