Pre-Professional Study

Because Miami graduates achieve unusually high acceptance rates to professional schools, a Miami education is a good start to your career. The balanced academic program provided by the Miami Plan for Liberal Education helps students develop critical thinking and problem-solving ability as well as essential written and verbal skills highly sought after by professional schools nationwide.

Our pre-professional programs involve a self-selected course of study that prepares you for professional school within the guidelines of another major. Students interested in healthcare professions, such as medicine and physical therapy, often major in Zoology, Chemistry, Microbiology, or Psychology. Popular majors for students interested in law include Economics, English, History, and Political Science.
