Are there “pre-med” or “pre-dent” majors?
Because health professional schools are looking for students who have a well-rounded liberal arts background, there are no “pre-med” or “pre-dent” majors at Lehigh for our traditional four year students. Students have the opportunity to major in any area, provided they complete the necessary core pre-requisites set forth by the medical, dental, and other professional programs. Choosing a major is an individual decision. Students must, however, demonstrate proficiency in and aptitude for science, the basis of the medical curriculum, but should chose majors they enjoy and in which they can demonstrate scholarship.
