Completion of science and liberal arts requirements are necessary for admission into health professional schools.

In most cases, successful applicants to medical, osteopathic, dental, and podiatric schools have completed a B.A. or B.S. degree. The baccalaureate degree major may be in any field of study. Four courses in chemistry, three in biology, two in physics, two in mathematics and two in English are required by most medical, osteopathic, podiatric, and dental schools. The requirement for a large number of science courses probably explains the fact that, at Siena Heights University, most successful applicants to these professional schools hold baccalaureate degree majors in biology.

Many schools of optometry, physical therapy, chiropractic medicine, pharmacy, mortuary science, and veterinary medicine accept applications from students who are completing their sophomore year of college and all of the science and liberal arts requirements. There is a trend developing among some of these professional schools to require or prefer more extensive preparation than two years of college. Requirements differ from school to school in these pre-professional areas. Therefore, students planning to transfer to one of these professional schools should make an appointment with a science advisor as soon as possible during orientation or the first semester of classwork.

For information regarding preparation for a career in medical technology, please refer to the biology major.

Course Descriptions Explanation: The majority of courses at Siena Heights University are three semester hour offerings, but there are some one, two, and four hour courses. Some courses are listed TBA. This means that the semester hour designation is variable and that the work load may be arranged by the instructor in light of particular goals of the student.

Example:

ENG 101 Reading and Writing I ...... 3 Using contemporary essays as reading materials, the student will formulate ideas on a variety of enduring and current human issues. The student will learn and practice basic writing techniques and modes of devel- opment to communicate ideas in standard English.

ENG designates the English Department which offers the course numbered 101 (Freshman level) and entitled Reading and Writing I. The “3” indicates that the course is a three semester hour course. Prerequisite indicates whether or not a student must have had previous college level study to be properly prepared for this course. In this example, students will be recommended into Reading and Writing I as a result of their ACT scores. Whenever a specific course is listed as a prerequisite and a student has not had that course, the instructor is authorized to give the student permission to register.

Faculty members who suspect a student of academic dishonesty may settle the case directly with the student.

When a student is penalized, the faculty member reports the incident in writing to his/her department chair. A copy of the report will be sent to the appropriate Dean.
