<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 />
