Special Bachelor's Degree Option for Three-Year Premedical/Predental Students Majors in Biology and Allied Health Sciences Associate of Arts in Biology Bachelor of Arts in Biology Bachelor of Science in Biology Certificate Programs Bachelor of Science in Clinical Laboratory Sciences Other Pre-Allied Health Science Degree Programs Special Bachelor's Degree Option for Three-Year Premedical/Predental Students A student may be admitted to medical or dental school upon receipt of the bachelor's degree or, for some students with outstanding credentials, after the completion of three years (90 credit hours) of course work. The Indiana University Schools of Medicine or Dentistry bulletins should be consulted for specific requirements. Students who have been admitted after completion of at least 90 credit hours and who have satisfied the basic requirements at Indiana University Southeast may apply 32 credit hours earned during their first year in medical or dental school and at the end of that year earn the bachelor's degree.
Recommendation Majors in Biology and Allied Health Sciences Indiana University Southeast offers the prerequisite courses for premedicine, predentistry, preoptometry, preveterinary medicine, for other medical careers like osteopathic medicine, podiatry and chiropractic medicine, and for many allied health careers including clinical laboratory sciences, physical therapy, cytotechnology, occupational therapy, respiratory therapy, and others. For further information on these degrees, contact the School of Natural Sciences at (812) 941-2184, and by visiting the Biology homepage at www.ius.edu\biology. The candidate must complete the General Requirements for All Degrees and Graduation Requirements for the Associate of Arts Degree in this bulletin.
Campus requirements
Liberal Arts and Distribution requirements
Major Courses Electives to bring total to 60 credit hours.
Requirements The liberal arts track and biology core curriculum expose the student to major subject areas in biology while providing considerable flexibility for each student. For example, minimal mathematics and chemistry requirements allow students to develop minor subject areas or a second major in another science area or in an outside field like education, journalism or business. This degree is suitable for students who may apply for admission into law school or for those who seek employment in business, environmental studies, teaching, or industry. The B.A. liberal arts degree described above will not automatically fulfill requirements for entrance into medical, dental, optometry, medical technology, other allied health programs, or most graduate school programs. Students desiring eventual admission into a professional program or laboratory related fields should follow the B.S. in Biology degree program. The candidate following the B.A. in biology degree program must complete the General Requirements for All Degrees and Graduation Requirements for the Bachelor of Arts, in this bulletin, an introductory biology sequence (usually L101, L102), a 43-credit hour biology core, CHEM C101-C121, C102-C122, and MATH M122 or M125 with a grade of C or higher in each core course. Return to Bachelor of Arts in Biology List of general requirements for B.A. in Biology (see back of Schedule of Classes for specific courses to fulfill requirements): Campus requirements: ENG W131 Elementary Composition I, Research Writing, and Computer Literacy (3 credit hours of C106) Liberal Arts and Distribution requirements: four semesters of foreign language; Two courses in mathematical and formal reasoning: one course covered by major requirement, one course in Formal Reasoning (usually CSCI A201, CSCI C201); Three courses in the individual, society, and politics: one course psychology and society, one course politics and economics, and an additional course in either of the previous two; Five courses in four categories of literature, ideas, history, and the arts with two in historical investigation; One course in cultural diversity.

General Information Clinical laboratory science is aimed at quality performance of clinical laboratory procedures on biological samples from patients. The results of these procedures provide important patient data that aid the physician in the diagnosis and treatment of disease. The clinical laboratory science curriculum offered at IUS provides a broadly based background including specific chemistry, mathematics, and biological science requirements, as well as the opportunity to elect courses from the liberal arts. The curriculum of the clinical laboratory science program is fully accredited by the Committee on Allied Health Education and Accreditation. Return to Bachelor of Science in Clinical Laboratory Sciences The allied health sciences programs in clinical laboratory science will consider all eligible students for admission to the integrated programs offered in Louisville. Pre-allied health students interested in the program are advised that admission into the professional year is not guaranteed. Students must apply for admissions to the professional program at Bellarmine University in Louisville, KY. The preprofessional coursework may be taken part-time: the professional program is present in a full-time, day format only. The student takes the first two, preprofesional years at IUS and the 63 professional hours at Bellarmine University. Upon completion, the student receives an Indiana University degree. Non-Indiana University tuition is required for the 63 professional hours at Bellarmine University. This cost, however, is not significantly different from the cost of moving and living in Indianapolis for a year combined with the in-state tuition at IUPUI. Any student who is interested in the IUS Clinical Laboratory Science Program should contact the School of Natural Sciences at (812) 941-2184. Note: Admissions are competitive and restricted. Applicants are considered on their own merits without bias concerning sex, color, or creed. Acceptance is based upon the undergraduate record, letters of recommendation, community and extracurricular activities, personality and motivation, realistic perception of clinical laboratory science as a career, manual dexterity, ability to interact with other people satisfactorily, emotional maturity, and aptitude for transfer of knowledge to practical performance. The application deadline for admission to the professional program is November 15 for all enrollment the following year.The candidate following the B.S. in Clinical Laboraty Science degree program must complete the requirements discussed in General Requirements for All Degrees in this bulletin, and following courses at IUS: introductory sequence (usually L101, L102), a biology core, and the following courses: CHEM C105-C125, C106-C126, C341, C342; and MATH M122 and K300 (or E280) with a grade of C or higher in each course. Campus requirements: C106 Computer Literacy, ENG W131 Elementary Composition I and W231 Professional Writing Skills (Research Writing). Two courses in mathematical and formal reasoning: College Algebra (M122), and statistics (MATH K300 or ECON E280); Two courses in the individual, society and politics: courses psychology and sociology preferred; Two courses in four categories of literature, ideas, history, and the arts with Speech S121 required. One course in cultural diversity. This course may also be used to satisfy a distribution requirement above.

Other Pre-Allied Health Science Degree Programs Students interested in degrees in allied health science fields can take courses toward those degrees at IUS. Students generally can take one to three years at IUS and then must complete their degrees at another institution, such as the Indiana University Medical Center at Indianapolis. Many such students will be only a few courses short of an A.A. in biology (see above.) Any student who is interested in allied health science programs should contact the dean of the School of Natural Sciences for the most current information about the availability of courses and programs and the requirements for completing degrees. The following are some programs which students may begin at IUS: A.S. Health Information TechnologyStudents interested in occupational therapy must ultimately earn a mater's degree while those interested in physical therapy must ultimately earn a doctorate degree in that field. Contact the School of Natural Sciences for information about preprofessional preparation at the bachelor's level.
