Not sure if anyone can answer this question unless you are a neurosurgeon... But my question is: What academic program do you have to be in undergrad to become a neurosurgeon? Like in Harvard University there academic programs are: Engineering Research Science Technology Liberal Arts Music Economics Government/Political Science Performing Arts Social Science Visual Arts Humanities so what academic program would I have to be in? THANKS!

Answer:

Neurosurgeons need a medical degree to become doctors. Before earning a medical degree, they need to earn a bachelor's degree. Degrees in pre-medicine, biology or psychology can prepare undergraduates for medical school. Students should focus on coursework in anatomy, microbiology, physiology and chemistry.
