Pre-Professional Programs in Biology
Many students who plan to enter a professional school, such as Education
or Engineering, as undergraduates or who intend to pursue graduate
studies in a professional school such as Medicine, Dentistry, Veterinary
Science, Chiropractic, Optometry, or Nursing, follow a program of study
specifically designed for that career path. UW-Stevens Point offers a wide variety
of pre-professional programs, and our graduates have an excellent
record of acceptance by graduate and professional schools. Although not
required, we advise students in all pre-professional areas to get a
bachelor of science degree before entering a professional school. If
you would like more specific information or advisement, the Department
of Biology will assist you in finding an advisor to help you plan your
program.
