Students interested in pursuing a medical career focusing on the foot and ankle should consider the Pre-Podiatry degree program. This affiliated program between Millersville and the Temple University School of Podiatric Medicine allows Millersville students to transfer to the professional school after satisfactorily completing three years at Millersville. While at Millersville University, students will follow a broad, interdisciplinary approach to general biology studies.  After successful completion of the basic science courses at Temple the student is awarded a BS in Biology from Millersville. Each year, three spaces for admission to the podiatric school are reserved for Millersville students. After four years of successful study at the podiatric school the student earns a Doctor of Podiatric Medicine degree from Temple University.
