B.S. Medical Sciences
Health Sciences
In the Medical Sciences program you will take a comprehensive range of coursework in fundamental concepts of biology, critical thinking, leadership and professional conduct, psychology, global and cultural competence, and biomedical specialty areas. There is scope for hands-on research experience and internships within the local community that could be valuable assets in future professional programs.
This major is excellent preparation for a health professional program such as medicine, dentistry, ophthalmology or radiology. The Medical Sciences B.S. degree would be a terrific launch point for the student wanting a biomedical research career. Finally, it could also be used for allied health professions such as medical law or hospital administration.
