Uni Courses?


I am considering my options for tertiary education, but am stuck for ideas on what to enrol in. My areas of interest lie in psych, nursing and pediatrics, with the possibility of progression into medicine. Does anyone know of a course of study i can take that encompasses these areas, or allows me to work in these areas once i enter the workforce?
Where would Bsc(Health Science) get me?
Where would Bsc(pysch) get me?
etc
Thanks

I am not clear what country you reside in. I am responding to your question as if you were in the U.S.

For medicine, you may take any major as long as you take the courses required for pre-med, such as Chemistry (2 years), General Physics (2 semesters), General Biology (2 semesters, math through Calculus.

Taking a nursing major, however, will delay your graduation with all the pre-med requirements because so much of your curriculum is taken up with nursing courses and the sciences required for nursing are not the same as those required for pre-med.

Psychology is a major you could take and complete your pre-med also in four years. You could not, however, get into a professional job in psychology without advanced degrees.

The very best major I have observed students take while taking pre-med courses and also be ready to enter the workforce at the end of four years is Medical Technology.
