It prepares students for medical, dental or pharmacy school, or physician assistant programs; it also prepares students for graduate school programs or work in biomedical research, clinical research, or forensic or medical testing. It is also a suitable background for those interested in medically-related industries such as pharmaceutical or medical device sales, tissue donation/recovery, or MS programs for becoming a prosthetist/orthotist.
