Curriculum

While no set degree program is required for OMPP, students are encouraged to complete a program that fulfills Burrell’s prerequisite coursework requirements.  Majors that are most align with those requisites are the following:

  1. Biology
  2. Biochemistry
  3. Chemistry

Students not majoring in science based subjects should consider declaring and completing the minor in Pre-Health Studies.

Students who have declared alternative majors should reach out to the NMSU OMPP Representative for eligibility.

To ensure students are successful in the OMPP, they will meet with the NMSU OMPP Representative in Academic Advising every semester and with the Burrell College Office of Admissions annually.
