Hi, I'm a junior and I'm trying to plan ahead for my future. I'm interested in mortuary science and I live in Michigan. Anybody know any colleges with strong programs here?
Sure, I can help you with that. Michigan actually has quite a few options when it comes to Mortuary Science degree programs. It seems like the top three options are Wayne State University, the University of Michigan, and the Lansing Community College.
Wayne State University offers a Bachelor of Science in Mortuary Science that is designed to provide students with an understanding of business, science, and the humanities, with specific courses in funeral service counseling, business and law.
The University of Michigan also has a robust study program within their School of Literature, Science, and the Arts. While not specifically a Bachelor of Science in Mortuary Science, they offer several courses that could complement majoring in biology or biochemistry.
Lastly, Lansing Community College has an Associate Degree in Mortuary Science which focuses on business courses, specialized professional courses, and an internship at an approved funeral home.
Remember, it's always good to reach out to these colleges and discuss the program with the faculty who teach the courses. They can offer helpful insight into the program and what you might expect after graduation.
