Requirements for Students Participating in MD/7 Initiative
Students pursuing a BS in
environmental health who are also participating in the MD/7 Program must meet
the specified requirements for their major. In addition, the student will need
to fulfill the prehealth concentration by taking BIOL
1100, 1101 (pre-med students may substitute BIOL 1100, 1101 for the cognate
requirement of BIOL 1050, 1051), 1200, 1201; CHEM 1150, 1151, 1160, 1161, 2750,

BS in Health
Education and Promotion
Students entering the health
education and promotion degree program choose one of three concentrations:
community health, prehealth professions, or worksite
health promotion. The community health concentration requires a minimum
cumulative GPA of 2.5 for entry and thereafter the student must maintain a
minimum 2.0 GPA in the required cognates and pass all health education core
courses with a minimum grade of C. A student earning a D in any of these
courses must petition the Department of Health Education and Promotion for
probationary continuation. No student on probation may enroll for HLTH 4991,
Health Education and Promotion Internship. Students entering the worksite
health promotion concentration must have a minimum cumulative 2.0 GPA and a
minimum 2.5 GPA calculated on four courses: EHST 3900; FINA 2244; HLTH 2000;
PSYC 3241. Students entering the prehealth
professions concentration must have a minimum cumulative 2.0 GPA and a minimum
2.75 GPA calculated on the following courses: BIOL 1100, 1101, 1200, 1201; CHEM
1150, 1151, 1160, 1161. Prehealth professions
students must complete an interview with health education faculty. Minimum
degree requirement is 126 s.h. as
