Bachelor's Degree
Locations:
The Bachelor of Science in Vision Science is earned by students currently enrolled in Michigan College of Optometry’s (MCO) Doctor of Optometry (OD) program, who have completed at least three years of undergraduate coursework without earning an American bachelor’s degree. These students use OD coursework to complete the VISC-BS requirements, thus saving a year of study and expense at the undergraduate level.
Students earning the VISC-BS will demonstrate the behaviors expected of future optometrists, including honesty, integrity, compassion, accountability, and commitment to patient confidentiality. They will demonstrate a commitment to professional ethics and patient welfare, and will conduct themselves according to the Optometric Oath, American Optometric Association (AOA) Code of Ethics, and AOA Standards of Professional Conduct.
