Pre-Medicine Studies- Undergraduate Minor
The Pre-Medical School minor at New Mexico State University is part of a pre-medicine education program that addresses the growing demand for doctors, surgeons, and biomedical researchers with a strong understanding of a broad cross-section of STEM subjects and who model the human body as a series of interacting chemical process units. This minor of study is designed for students seeking a strong pre-med background (for both MCAT prep and program entry prerequisite completion) or who may be targeting a graduate degree in biomedical engineering. A student must pass 21-22 credits of courses with a grade C- or better. The minor includes 18-19 credit hours of required courses, and 3 credit hours of elective courses. No courses may be taken S/U. All prerequisites for the classes must be met or consent of the instructor obtained before enrolling in class.
