Program Overview

The biomedical sciences concentration serves students in the microbiology BS degree program who aim to pursue careers in health professions, medical microbiology or other areas of biomedical research. The curriculum aligns with the scientific competencies recommended for premed students in a report of the American Medical Colleges and the Howard Hughes Medical Institute Committee and are also reflected in the 2015 changes to the MCAT. Course work includes many of the courses in the microbiology major, including chemistry, biochemistry, math and physics, but some microbiology courses have been replaced with cell biology, animal physiology and courses that relate to human biology and society. The concentration emphasizes core concepts, competencies and critical intellectual skills necessary to succeed in medical school or biomedical research.
