Students interested in pre-optometry typically chart their studies in biology and chemistry. Through the lens of our well-planned course schedule, double majors (or combinations of a major and minor) are easy to accomplish.
Beyond core courses in biology and chemistry, we offer classes unique to your pre-optometry interests, including molecular biology, genetics, immunology, and analytical chemistry.
With a very strong academic department and very caring professors, I cannot imagine training anywhere else. They provided me with the support and mentoring that prepared me to go on to medical school.
