Pre-Medical/Pre-Dental (Plan of Study)

Students preparing for medical or dental school may pursue a major in any of the traditional arts or sciences. The area of concentration should be based on a sincere interest in a discipline that will allow possible alternate career options.

Pre-Professional Plans of Study

Students major in a degree program and use these study guidelines to assist in their curriculum choices. Students are responsible for learning about the particular professional schools or professions they are interested in by taking opportunities to serve in a voluntary or employed capacity in their field of interest. They should consult with the appropriate advisory group or their academic advisor regularly.

Students interested in medical, dental, pharmacy, physical therapy, or veterinary careers should enroll in INTD 135 - Explorations of Careers in Medicine and the Biomedical Sciences  in their first year.
