Bachelor of Science – Pre-Medicine Double Major – Bishop’s University, Sherbrooke, QC
The Pre-Medicine Double Major at Bishop’s University offers students a unique way to begin preparing for a career in healthcare. This dual degree is designed for students planning to pursue professional programs in Medicine, Dentistry, Dental Hygiene, or Medical Laboratory Sciences.
Unlike a traditional pre-med track, Bishop’s program combines all the prerequisites for medical school with a primary major of your choice. You’ll graduate not only with the academic foundation required for medical school admissions but also with a broader undergraduate education that strengthens your application and opens multiple career paths.
Medical schools in Canada and the U.S. are highly competitive, and Bishop’s Pre-Medicine Double Major gives students an advantage. Pre-Med students take courses across up to ten disciplines, including Biology, Biochemistry, Chemistry, Physics, Mathematics, Sociology, Psychology, Neuroscience, Philosophy, and Classics. This range ensures you develop both the scientific expertise and the critical thinking, communication, and analytical skills valued in healthcare professions. You’ll cover the prerequisites needed for medical schools across North America while also gaining depth in another discipline, whether that’s psychology, philosophy, drama, or politics. Admissions committees value well-rounded applicants, and this double major is designed to help you stand out.
The program also emphasizes professional and personal preparation. Small class sizes and close faculty support create a personalized learning environment, while experiential opportunities at Bishop’s and Université de Sherbrooke connect you with hands-on experience. Advisors help you design a balanced course sequence with MCAT and CASPer preparation in mind, and the university encourages volunteering, clinical experiences, and research placements that strengthen applications. By graduation, you’ll be ready not only for medical school but also for careers and further study in a variety of health-related fields.
At Bishop’s, you’ll find a supportive community that extends beyond the classroom. Professors know your name, mentor your growth, and involve you in research. Academic advisors guide you through course planning and medical school preparation, while Student Services provides support ranging from career coaching to personal counselling. Residence Life staff foster a vibrant, close-knit campus culture. With fewer than 3,000 full-time students, Bishop’s combines academic rigour, experiential learning, and personal attention, equipping graduates to take on the MCAT, CASPer, and competitive admissions with confidence.
