Build a Foundation for a Career in Occupational Therapy
and Patient-Centered Care
Pre-professional studies offer dedicated guidance from faculty members in the Department of Biomedical & Natural Sciences and School of Health Sciences to help tailor your course work so that you are better prepared to pursue an advanced degree.
Optometrist
Optometrists are primary health care providers for the treatment and care of the eye and related structures. They examine, diagnose and treat conditions that may affect vision, including systemic disorders that lead to visual defects. Optometrists fit individuals for contacts, glasses and other visual aids, and help to maintain ocular or visual care.
Pre-Optometrist
The Mount’s pre-optometrist area of study prepares you well for a doctor of optometry. The Mount recommends students interested in pre-physician assistant studies choose a major in biology.
