General Biology & Genetics: The building blocks of cellular function and inheritance.
Chemistry & Organic Chemistry: Essential for understanding pharmacology and metabolic processes.
Biochemistry: Focuses on the chemical processes within and relating to living organisms.
Ecology & Marine Biology: Courses focused on ocean ecosystems, taxonomy, and marine populations.
Physics & Mathematics: Required by most vet schools to prepare for later clinical imaging and calculation.

Key subjects include ichthyology, marine mammalogy, and comparative anatomy to understand diverse aquatic species.
Mastering water chemistry is also vital for habitat management, alongside pathology and toxicology for diagnosing diseases.
Finally, epidemiology and statistics are essential for tracking health trends and research in wild marine populations.
