专业概况

The basic medical sciences major offers you all the science you need to enter medical school or other health science schools, while giving you the flexibility to pursue your own particular interests and even study abroad.

This major is a good choice for pre-health students who have diverse interests. Students in the program work closely with their academic advisor to develop a coherent course of study that includes preparation for professional school.

The basic medical sciences major offers a track especially for pre-medicine students.

Strengths of the program

Our health professions specialists will help you navigate the application process for medical or another professional school, including building your portfolio, securing internships, and preparing for interviews. Study at a national research university with research and teaching facilities that are equipped with the latest analytical instrumentation. Collaborate with internationally respected faculty members on their research projects or pursue a project of your own.

Study options

The program offers two study tracks. Both plans will fulfill science requirements for admission to medical school or another health science professional program.

Plan A has a primary concentration in biological sciences with a secondary concentration in chemistry.

Plan B provides in-depth training in the life sciences; it appeals to students who want to spend more time studying subjects like anatomy, physiology, neuroscience, nutrition, immunology, virology, epidemiology, parasitology, or genetics.

Health science majors often choose to live in Stephenson, the science, math, and engineering residence hall. Living there lets you get to know other students with similar interests. The residence hall offers study groups, tutoring and mentoring, a computer lab, and internet connections in every room.

Featured courses

The basic medical sciences course of study offers two plans. Both plans provide all the science required by medical and other health science schools while giving you time and flexibility to pursue other interests.

Plan A has a primary concentration in biological sciences with a secondary concentration in chemistry. Plan B utilizes courses from biology, molecular biosciences, and neuroscience.

CORE COURSES FOR PLAN A AND PLAN B
