BS in Biology: Pre-Physical Therapy/Pre-Physician’s Assistant
Because there are specific requirements for Physical Therapy and Physician Assistant graduate programs, the Biology Department has designed this particular concentration to meets those requirements. Students not only take academic courses, but they are also required to have internships to prepare them for entry into graduate physical therapy programs.
