The BS in Professional Biomedical Sciences is an undergraduate degree completion path for students who made initial progress in an undergraduate degree program but transitioned to a professional medical sciences program prior to completion of their undergraduate degree. This degree is only open to students previously enrolled as undergraduate students in a CLAS major at WSU who meet the established eligibility requirements.  Eligible students will be able to earn a bachelor’s degree after transferring credits from approximately a year of successfully completed professional school credits without having to return to an undergraduate program. 

• A student must have completed a minimum of 90 credits towards an UG program prior to entry into a professional program.
  • Completion of university general education requirements and the CLAS language requirement within those 90 credits.
  • Options to meet the CLAS minor requirements would be possible with the student’s original intended major or a biology minor as most professional programs require a concentration of BIO courses prior to entry.
• A student must complete a minimum of three college-level semesters at Wayne State.
• A student must have completed a minimum of 30 credits in residence at WSU prior to entry into a professional program.
• A student must complete a minimum of 12 credits at the 3000 level or higher.
• A student must have made reasonable progress toward completion of a declared WSU major. Examples of reasonable progress include documented interaction with department major academic advisors and/or successful completion of required coursework toward the major.
• A student’s cumulative and major GPA must be at a minimum of 2.0 at the time of departure from WSU.
• A student will have successfully completed a minimum of the first year (more if additional credits to reach 120 are needed) of a professional medical-based program offered by a U.S. accredited institution.
