The curriculum in biomedical sciences prepares students for entry into diverse types of professional schools in the health sciences, graduate programs in biomedical sciences and molecular biology, and careers in clinical lab science and human health-related research/industry after graduation. Students in these programs are encouraged to gain relevant experience at local healthcare, research, and clinical laboratory facilities.
Students successfully completing the program of study will have achieved the following learning outcomes:
1. Mastery of basic terminology, core concepts, and quantitative analysis in the following areas as they apply to human and animal health:
a. Cell Biology
b. Anatomy
c. Genetics
d. Chemistry
2. Ability to summarize and interpret primary literature in biomedical sciences and related fields.
3. Application of basic laboratory data acquisition, analysis, and presentation skills.
4. Design and execution of an extended research project, and successful communication of the results formally in written and verbal form.
