<strong>Humboldt</strong>’s Career Center has information<br />
on requirements at medical and other professional<br />
schools.<br />
The Program<br />
Several of <strong>Humboldt</strong>’s undergraduate<br />
programs in the biological and physical sciences<br />
prepare students to meet admissions<br />
requirements for health science professional<br />
schools. Usually these schools require a<br />
broad education in biological and physical<br />
sciences, which <strong>Humboldt</strong> provides.<br />
<strong>Humboldt</strong> offers both supervised and independent<br />
studies to prepare for professional<br />
schools.<br />
REQUIREMENTS<br />
Requirements listed here are typical for<br />
health science and related professional<br />
schools. Contact individual professional<br />
schools for specific requirements and consult<br />
preprofessional advisors.<br />
• General education courses and other<br />
requirements for the major. (To demonstrate<br />
a well rounded background,<br />
the HIST 104-105 sequence is recommended.)<br />
• Biology: BIOL 105, 340; ZOOL 210,<br />
310.<br />
• Chemistry: CHEM 109, 110; 321-322.<br />
Some schools may require CHEM 438<br />
or the 431-432 series. Start the CHEM<br />
109-110 sequence as soon as possible.<br />
• Mathematics: MATH 109, 110 (or<br />
MATH 105, 205 for pre-medical students).<br />
The amount of calculus required<br />
by professional schools varies, but a full<br />
year is highly recommended. Start the<br />
mathematics sequence in the freshman<br />
year, because physics and chemistry<br />
courses have mathematics prerequisites.<br />
Preveterinary students should take<br />
BIOM 109.<br />
• Physics: PHYX 106-107 sequence or<br />
PHYX 109, 110, 111.<br />
• Zoology: ZOOL 270 is strongly recommended<br />
for pre-medical students.<br />
• Other courses may be required to prepare<br />
adequately for appropriate aptitude<br />
examinations.<br />
Preprofessional students should remain<br />
in close contact with their preprofessional<br />
advisors.<br />
