A student interested in obstetrics or nursing can benefit from taking an obstetrical nursing program. In this course, students learn the favored and accepted practices of caring for infants and mothers before, during and after delivery and may be able to lead obstetric wards at hospital and clinics.

A program in pre-veterinary medicine can help prepare students who like to work with animals to go to veterinary school. Students pursuing a pre-vet course of study may also be able to work at an internship with a veterinarian in order to find out more about the profession.
