ART THERAPY
Art therapy is a growing profession employing individuals interested
in using art to help others. Professionals in the field work in schools, clinics,
and hospital settings, or as independent therapists. Eureka College offers a pre-professional
program combining studies in the visual arts and psychology with internship experiences
in art therapy. It is expected that most students will continue their studies
in this field at the Master's degree level; however, beginning opportunities for
employment may be available upon completion of the Bachelor's degree level.
PRE-ACTUARIAL
Eureka College has been recognized by the Society of Actuaries because of the success of its pre-actuarial program in providing a foundation for a career in actuarial science. Students interested in an actuarial career will normally major in Mathematics or Computer Science, with additional courses in Business Administration. Courses involved in the pre-actuarial program, which prepare the student for the actuary exams, are:
PRE-LAW
Although certain courses are recommended for students preparing to go on to law school after graduation from Eureka, there is no one prescribed major. Law schools are seeking students who perform well on the Law School Admission Test (normally taken in the junior year) and who have an excellent record in their undergraduate program regardless of their specific major. To assure that Pre-Law students are guided in their programs, advisers work closely with them in discussing potential majors and selection of other courses, and assist them in knowing how to prepare for the LSAT.
PRE-MEDICINE, PRE-DENTISTRY, AND PRE-VETERINARY PROGRAMS
The student entering one of the
pre-professional areas will usually major in biology or chemistry. However, a
student from any major may be accepted as long as he/she has the specific prerequisite
courses for the professional school and successful performance on the professional
admissions test in his/her area.
PRE-MINISTRY
Includes studies in such areas as communications, history, literature and psychology. A student may choose a major from a wide variety of options, including a major in Philosophy and Religion. Internship experience is available.
PRE-MUSIC THERAPY
The music therapy profession employs individuals who are interested
in using music to help others. The Pre-Music Therapy program is a pre-professional
program which will facilitate entrance into Master's degree programs in Music
Therapy.
PRE-NURSING
Eureka College
is affiliated with four Central Illinois nursing institutions: the Mennonite College
of Nursing in Normal; OSF Saint Francis College of Nursing in Peoria; Methodist
Medical Center of Illinois, School of Nursing in Peoria; and St. John's College,
Department of Nursing in Springfield.
