As with all of its preprofessional programs, Millersville University believes that undergraduate training for medical school should focus on a well-rounded education. Therefore, premedical professional option students are required to take a core foundation of liberal arts courses. That foundation, in combination with the recommended scientific courses, prepares premedical students at Millersville for the rigors of medical education. It also challenges them to develop both their abilities and perceptions so they are primed for the diagnostic and ethical demands of medical practice.
