Go to the U of M Morris home page. You are here Home » Medicine. Pre-Med Recommended Coursework. Traditionally, medical schools require the following undergraduate preparation at a minimum : A full year of Biology Chemistry Organic chemistry Physics trigonometry- or calculus-based It is important to realize that every medical school has its own specific set of prerequisite courses, and these change occasionally.
Although some medical schools have become more flexible about specific requirements, the University of Minnesota, Morris Pre-med Advising Committee suggests you keep the following in mind: Admission to medical school is competitive. The focus on genetics should include nucleic acid structure and function, genetic recombination, and mechanisms of gene expression in eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells i.
Preparation in biology should emphasize human biology and principles of systems biology. Advanced placement credits cannot be used to satisfy this requirement; upper-level courses should be taken if students have been granted advanced placement credits. All applicants must complete a two-year chemistry sequence that covers inorganic chemistry, organic chemistry, and biochemistry.
Students should be exposed to general chemistry, organic chemistry, and biochemistry in a two-year sequence that provides the foundation for the study of biologically relevant chemistry. General chemistry preparation should include foundational topics in physical and inorganic chemistry such as bonding, molecular structure, chemical reactivity, equilibrium, energetics, and thermodynamics. Matriculants will be required to demonstrate mastery of biochemistry.
Although many different course sequences may be used to satisfy this requirement, an integrated sequence that includes biologically relevant general, organic, and biochemistry is preferred. Advanced placement credits that enable students to take an upper-level course may be used to meet one semester equivalent of this requirement as long as students demonstrate mastery of biologically relevant general and organic chemistry and biochemistry.
All applicants must complete a full year of physics. For applicants to the HST program, the required one year of physics should be taken in college, and calculus-based physics is strongly encouraged. Students should be well prepared in biologically relevant areas of mechanics, kinetics, thermodynamics, the properties of matter quantum theory and wave theory, electricity and magnetism, and optics.
For Pathways applicants, advanced placement credits that enable students to take an upper-level course may be used to meet one semester equivalent of this requirement as long as students demonstrate mastery of the principles of biologically relevant physics.
Required laboratory components of biology and chemistry are no longer defined as discretely as they were in the past. Proper focus on hypothesis-driven exercises, problem solving, and hands-on demonstrations of important principles should take precedence over lengthy laboratory time commitments.
Active, sustained participation in faculty-mentored laboratory research experiences is encouraged and can be used to meet requirements for the acquisition of laboratory skills. Pathways applicants are encouraged to complete a one-year mathematics sequence that includes calculus and statistics, preferably biostatistics. This is usually demonstrated through upper-level course work, but other approaches may satisfy these guidelines.
Examples: A semester course in calculus that covers derivatives and integration and a semester course in statistics; for HST applicants a calculus-based physics course and another science course that includes a firm grounding in biostatistics; or preferably, a unified two-semester course that covers important, biologically relevant concepts in calculus and statistics. All applicants must complete one year of coursework that features expository writing.
Generally, any course in the social sciences or humanities that involves substantial essay writing will count toward this requirement. Creative, complex, and compelling discoveries in medicine involve grappling with good questions borne from close-reading analyses and careful observations.
