Pre-professional majors in the health sciences

UIndy prepares students for many professional and graduate programs, including pre-pharmacy, pre-dentistry, pre-medicine, pre-occupational therapy, pre-physical therapy, pre-athletic training and pre-veterinary. If you're planning to pursue one of these professions, you'll be assigned a faculty advisor who will help you select the appropriate undergraduate major and courses to take to best prepare you to further your education and fulfill any prerequisites you might need for future professional or graduate study.

Most students interested in professional degrees in health-related fields choose one of the following majors:

• Biology
• Chemistry
• Exercise Science
• Anthropology
• Public Health Education & Promotion

If you're interested in another major, your faculty advisor can help you choose an appropriate program.
