Description:

The Bachelor of Science in Biomedical Sciences program includes intensive study in the sciences in preparation for upper-level courses in human systems. Students are prepared for health-related careers in medicine, dentistry, optometry, physical therapy, public health, biomedical research, and others.

Because the curriculum focuses on human systems, students with a B.S. in Biomedical Sciences have the distinct advantage of having basic medical sciences classes, which are usually only offered at the post baccalaureate level. These courses prepare students with a solid background for health professions, graduate school, or for baccalaureate entry-level health related jobs such as in the pharmaceutical industry or government.
