Pre-Law - In general, accredited law schools have not adopted specific requirements for pre-law education; they do, however, emphasize certain courses as being conducive to the development of the broad cultural background necessary for the successful study of law.

Teacher Preparation - Students who wish to prepare for teaching careers in the secondary schools (grades 7-12) of Tennessee will be expected to complete a baccalaureate degree with a major in the intended teaching area, followed by earning licensure through the College of Education, Health and Human Sciences. Additional information on licensure requirements may be obtained from the Office of Teacher Education in the College of Education, Health and Human Sciences. Through a collaborative partnership between the College of Arts & Sciences and the College of Education, Health and Human Sciences at the University of Memphs, UTeach MEmphis allows science and mathematics majors to sample the world of pre-college teaching and earn the certification needed to teach their subject in secondary schools while still completing the course requirements for the Bachelor of Science degree.
