ABOUT THE DEGREE
Bachelor of Science in Pre‑Medical Justice (B.S.PMJ) with Integrated Clinical Internship and Simulation Laboratories Rotations Degree Plan
The convergence of health‑care delivery and legal regulation demands professionals who understand both clinical practice and the juridical frameworks governing patient care. This paper proposes a comprehensive eight‑semester Bachelor of Science in Pre‑Medical Laws (B.S.PML) that couples rigorous legal scholarship with immersive clinical training. Each of the 24 credit‑bearing courses follows a unified coding system (JUST ####) and is accompanied by a dedicated simulation laboratory module that mirrors real‑world health‑care environments. A mandatory 400‑hour clinical internship in the final year consolidates learning across patient assessment, mental‑health care, maternity assistance, pharmacology, laboratory services, surgical assistance, peri‑operative care, anesthesia, post‑anesthesia care unit (PACU), intensive‑care unit (ICU) support, patient transportation, and operating‑room (OR) set‑up and decontamination. Transfer equivalency mapping to the University of Houston (UH) ensures that each JUST course aligns with a four‑digit UH course code, facilitating articulation and advanced study. Outcomes of the curriculum are evaluated through competency‑based assessment, legal‑ethical case analyses, and performance metrics in high‑fidelity simulation. The program prepares graduates for roles such as health‑law analysts, compliance officers, clinical risk managers, and interdisciplinary liaisons who can navigate patient‑care delivery while safeguarding legal and ethical standards.
