As a CNS student, your science-focused major will lay the foundation in mastering the most common requisites needed for professional health programs. The Pre-Health Professions Certificate will encourage you to diversify your degree, build your professional competencies and portfolio, and broaden your preparation by choosing additional coursework (at least 9 hours) in a specific theme:
- Cultural Awareness Theme
- Health & Anatomy Theme
- Healthcare Policy Theme
- Human & Societal Development Theme
- Nutrition Theme
Students are encouraged to work closely with their advisor and the Health Professions Office to select a healthcare theme and courses most relevant to their professional career goals. Some of the courses may contain prerequisites that are in addition to the coursework for the certificate.
