In fact, several of our recent graduates have pursued post-graduate study in law school, medical school, or other health-related specialties (e.g. physical therapy, physician assistant programs, or veterinary school). Students following Butler&#8217;s pre-health studies curriculum are required to have a major within a department and although many choose Biology or Chemistry as a major, some also choose Psychology as their primary course of study. Psychology majors who wish to apply to medical school complete the psychology curriculum outlined for majors while also completing the sequence of pre-health studies courses recommended by the Post-Graduate Studies office. Students wishing to enter law school complete the psychology curriculum and work closely with <a style=\"font-family: var(--font-family-base); font-size: var(--font-size-body);\" title=\"pre-law advising\" href=\"https:\/\/www.butler.edu\/academic-services\/learning\/pre-law-advising\/\">Pre-Law Advising<\/a> in the Student Success Center&nbsp;to prepare for the LSAT exam and for the law school application process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Meet some of our alumni and see where a psychology degree has taken them. <\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"butler-accordion-container wp-block-butler-accordion-container\" data-allow-multiple=\"false\" style=\"--butler-accordion-title-bg-hover: ;\">\n\n<div class=\"butler-accordion-item wp-block-butler-accordion-item\">\n\t<div class=\"butler-accordion-header\">\n\t\t<h2 class=\"butler-accordion-title wp-block-butler-accordion-item\">\n\t\t\t<button class=\"butler-accordion-toggle\" aria-expanded=\"false\">\n\t\t\t\tMelissa Evans, B.A. &#039;20 &#8211; Cognitive Psychologist\t\t\t\t<span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Open<\/span>\n\t\t\t<\/button>\n\t\t<\/h2>\n\t<\/div>\n\t<div class=\"butler-accordion-item-content\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\n\t\t\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignleft size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"240\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.butler.edu\/www\/sites\/12\/2026\/01\/06103357\/melissa-evans.jpg\" alt=\"Melissa Evans smiling by bookshelf\" class=\"wp-image-21118\" style=\"width:200px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.butler.edu\/www\/sites\/12\/2026\/01\/06103357\/melissa-evans.jpg 240w, https:\/\/cdn.butler.edu\/www\/sites\/12\/2026\/01\/06103357\/melissa-evans-200x300.jpg 200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 240px) 100vw, 240px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I am a cognitive psychologist in Nashville, TN, researching conversation and memory.

I am a Ph.D. student at Vanderbilt University working in the Psychology &amp; Human Development department with Dr. Sarah Brown-Schmidt, and I aim to graduate in 2025. I\u2019m particularly interested in the nature of question asking and how this can apply to forensic settings and legal policy. My research has been an incredible opportunity to interact with researchers from around the world, and I recently traveled to Nagoya, Japan to speak at an international conference about my research on how patients with brain injuries are able to remember stories. I was recently awarded with a Graduate Conference Award that will allow me to take my work on how we remember questions to San Francisco.

I work in the Burnet and Liberty emergency departments and their respective urgent care facilities.

Children are so resilient and strong, and it is truly an honor to be a part of their healthcare journeys. I think it is so important to focus on children&#8217;s whole-body health. Mental health is just as important as physical health. I spend a lot of time during my visits addressing the social determinants of health. Multiple factors, such as race, socioeconomic status, housing, familial mental health and health literacy, affect our health. Healthcare does not exist in an isolated bubble!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Since I like to know my patients personally, I often spend time during a visit asking about favorite colors, favorite foods, pets at home, after-school activities and the like. Most importantly, I love to snuggle babies! If you bring your baby in for an ill visit, expect me to spend most of the visit holding your child, talking to them and loving on them as if they were my own child. It is the best part of my job!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">My philanthropic involvement in Tri Delta, my sorority in college, connected me to pediatric cancer research and showed me the importance of pediatrics.
