Why does Sac State require Pharmacology and Physiology as prerequisites?
We require these courses as prerequisites because their content provides important background for being successful in the program coursework. The foundational knowledge of pharmacology and physiology is needed as we integrate these topics into patient management in many of the courses throughout the curriculum. Our program length is kept to only 28-months partly because we do not include these as freestanding courses within our curriculum. Both prerequisite courses are available online.
