Pre-Professional Studies Emphasis


The Pre-Professional Studies Emphasis allows students to design an area of emphasis around a professional graduate school’s entrance criterion.  It is the student’s responsibility to critically examine and design their program of study around the professional graduate program’s admission requirement.

Examples of Professional Schools include, but are not limited to:  Occupational Therapy, Nutrition and Dietetics, Public Health, Health Informatics, Health Care Administration, Health Services, Health Promotion, Health Communication, Audiology, and Health Information Technology.

Completion criteria for the Pre-Professional Studies Emphasis:

1.  A minimal representation of two different disciplines (Example: Chemistry and Biology, Physics and Sociology, Sociology and Psychology, Music and Computer, etc.) 

2.  Students may choose representation from as many disciplines as needed; however, twenty-four (24) credit hours must be concentrated in two separate disciplines.

3.  The two primary disciplines selected must have at least twelve (12) credit hours of upper-level course work (300 or higher).
