The following courses are<br />

recommended for medical school<br />

admission. A student should contact<br />

Physics, but can also be satisfied in various o<strong>the</strong>r majors with <strong>the</strong> appropriate choices of electives.<br />

PRE-LAW<br />

An advantage of <strong>the</strong> University’s<br />

Core Curriculum is that it develops<br />

<strong>the</strong> habits of critical and logical<br />

thinking that are central <strong>to</strong> admission<br />

<strong>to</strong>, and success in, law<br />

school. In addition, students<br />

planning <strong>to</strong> attend law school<br />

should place <strong>the</strong> greatest emphasis<br />

on skill in both oral and written<br />

communication. Both <strong>the</strong> B.S.<br />

in humanities and <strong>the</strong> B.S. in<br />

technical and professional<br />

communication provide a thorough<br />

education in communication and<br />

critical thinking, skills essential <strong>to</strong><br />

<strong>the</strong> study of law. The Humanities<br />

degree, especially, provides excellent<br />

preparation by offering a<br />

knowledge of <strong>the</strong> context and<br />

development of <strong>the</strong> U.S.<br />

system of law and government.<br />

Additional courses in four categories<br />

are particularly valuable <strong>to</strong><br />

pre-law students:<br />

Note: Completion of <strong>the</strong> <strong>Lawrence</strong> Tech requirements in <strong>the</strong> pre-professional programs does not assure <strong>the</strong> student of admission <strong>to</strong> medical, dental,<br />

law or graduate school. However, completion of <strong>the</strong> requirements and of o<strong>the</strong>r courses leading <strong>to</strong> a bachelor’s degree does qualify a student for<br />

consideration by most professional and graduate schools.<br />
