Pre-Health Professions Advisement Program

The Pre-Health Professions advisement program services the needs of students seeking to pursue careers in dentistry, medicine, optometry, pharmacy, physician assistance, and veterinary medicine. The program provides academic advisement for a balanced curriculum in biology, chemistry, physics, English, humanities, mathematics, social sciences, and other prerequisites for specific areas of study required for acceptance into advanced professional programs. A seminar for the health professions is offered to assist students throughout their four years and is offered at the freshman/sophomore and junior/senior levels, reflecting the level of student matriculation through the program and stage of the application process. Internships, shadowing, and research are integral to the program and planned with advisors.
