Any of our students tailor their undergraduate degrees for entry into professional and graduate schools. The department has an excellent program in secondary science education for those desiring to teach, an outstanding pre-health track for students interested in the medical professions, and the combination of academic and research opportunities necessary to best prepare students for research-based graduate studies. Students seeking careers in medicine, dentistry, osteopathy, optometry or podiatry should check the College of Sciences section of the catalog for additional information. Students should confer with their advisors to select the most appropriate math courses and science courses. The most frequently recommended biology courses are in the areas of human or vertebrate anatomy and physiology and those stressing the molecular and cellular levels of organization. However, students also are encouraged to explore other disciplines while they have the opportunity to develop a broader view of life processes and the human condition.
