About the Respiratory Care Program

Respiratory Care was initially offered by St. Mary’s Junior College in 1967 as an AAS degree, later becoming the Respiratory Therapy program at St. Catherine’s Minneapolis campus. The Department of Respiratory Care began as an associate degree in 2001. It became a baccalaureate program in 2005 and in 2007 allowed students to gain a second major (post-baccalaureate) certificate.
