There are no pre-professionalmajors. Students of any major may attend a professional school,provided they take the prescribed required courses beforehand, meetother admissions requirements, and are selected from the pool of qualifi edapplicants in a competitive process.Students are encouraged to contact the advisor for the program of interestearly in their college career and remain in contact regularly thereafter toreceive the advising necessary to prepare the student for professionalschool application.Students who plan to pursue a career in a health profession are stronglyadvised to apply to the Pre-Health Professions Program and to take thetwo Pre-Health Professions seminar courses (PREP 2105, 2106 see“course descriptions” later in the catalog) required to receive the offi cialPre-Health Professions Committee letter of evaluation during the applicationprocess.

Options include either transferringto an engineering school after the junior year and working towards twoBachelor’s Degrees or following a Physics degree at McMurry Universitywith graduate work in Engineering. The particular area of Engineering inwhich the student is interested may infl uence their choice of electives.The Department of Physics offers a BS in physics with concentrations inElectrical Engineering and in Civil/Mechanical Engineering. Interestedstudents should refer to the Degree Program under the Department ofPhysics for details. You may also contact one of the Physics professors.PRE-HEALTH PROGRAMSPre-Allied HealthAdvisor: Dr. Larry SharpThere are many rewarding careers available in the health professionsbesides the commonly known dental, medical, physical therapy, veterinarymedicine and other high-profi le health professions. Such important fi eldsas respiratory therapy, physician’s assistant, optometry, radiological imaging,and other health fi elds may be of interest to some students. As thecoursework necessary for acceptance into these programs varies greatly,it is suggested that interested students contact the Pre-Allied Health Advisorfor information and guidance.Pre-DentistryAdvisor: Dr. Larry SharpAll dental schools in Texas participate in the common application madethrough the Texas Medical and Dental Student Application Service in Austin.
