Pre-Veterinary Medicine
Medicine and Health CareStudents preparing for a career as a physician, dentist, veterinarian, physical therapist, physician assistant, pharmacist, podiatrist, chiropractor or optometrist will get a great start at Elmira College. Students following their passion, with any academic major, will develop the skills crucial to the practicing physician: problem-solving, effective communication, and critical thinking skills.
Most students choose a major in one of the sciences, although psychology, history, sociology, Spanish or English have also been popular majors or minors for those interested in health care. Fulfilling a broad-based liberal arts education with attention to the science pre-requisite courses is a smart way to prepare for future study in medical school.
