Educational training in traditional medicine promotes a comprehensive understanding of the practices and skills associated with Traditional Chinese Medicine. This might include herbal remedies and acupuncture. Students may learn the ancient philosophical and cultural concepts of TCM along with more modern clinical applications.

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.
