Get a master degree in medical field without related undergrad degree

<p>Hi</p>

<p>I am trying to pursuit a master of medical degree. I am graduating with a undergrad business degree soon. I understand that most medical degree requires a pre-med degree like bio, chem... Is there any medical degree that do not need a pre-med degree? Could anyone give me some suggestions? Or any school that has conditional acceptance (requires me to finish some undergrad courses before given a real accepted status)?</p>

<p>What’s your purpose in pursuing a Masters in Medical Science?</p>

<p>Nutrition perhaps. Public health definitely.</p>

<p>It depends on what you want to do. If by “medical degree” you mean a degree that allows you to do some kind of practice-based medical work, like nursing or physician assistant, then no - all of those types of degrees require science prerequisites that are similar to the pre-med curriculum. There may be a few BSN/MSN programs that allow in students who haven’t completed all of the prerequisites, but just have one or two more - I know that NYU’s second-degree BSN program allows that, but you have to finish the prereqs before you can begin the actual program. However, most of these programs have far more applicants than they have spots, so they don’t have to let anyone in who doesn’t have the requirements because they have enough people with those prerequisites.</p>

<p>If you mean health-related degrees, sure. As was already stated, an MPH doesn’t require any biological classes (although if you want to do epidemiology or environmental health sciences, some programs may require or recommend some bio courses. And epidemiology and biostatistics may require some math). Nutrition will probably require some natural science courses.</p>

<p>Getting an advanced degree in nutrition will most likely require having an RD or the equivalent. Which would require a foundation in all the sciences plus the RD req’s</p>
