Medicine
Boston University Sargent College’s Human Physiology and Nutritional Science programs are excellent options for students who want to apply to medical school and other health related graduate programs. Their curriculums have the required pre-medical courses built directly into the program. Other coursework has an applied, human focus and fulfills prerequisites for the following graduate programs:
- Medical, Dental, Osteopathy and Veterinary schools
- Physical, Occupational, Speech and Rehabilitation Therapy programs
- Physician Assistant and Nursing programs
- Health Administration
- Education
- Public Health
- Nutrition
Students also have the option in their last semester to do an internship in a hospital or clinical setting. This is set up by program faculty in any one of over 70 internship sites in the greater Boston area.
Other Pre-Medical Opdtions Available:
- Modular Medical
- Integrated Curriculum
The Modular Medical Integrated Curriculum (MMEDIC) provides students with the opportunity for early selection to the Boston University School of Medicine while they are still undergraduates. Students apply to the program in the spring of their second year. Upon acceptance, MMEDIC students enroll in courses that enable them to simultaneously fulfill undergraduate science requirements and certain requirements of the first and second year of medical school. This approach allows students a greater degree of flexibility once they are in medical school.
