This pathway is applicable to students planning to prepare for upper division Bachelor's degree majors in Biology, including the medical field. This Biology MRP streamlines and facilitates preparation for upper division coursework in Biology across the state. Students planning a career in medicine, medical technology, dentistry, chiropractic, pharmacy, physical therapy or veterinary can begin their studies at LCC and gain a solid foundation in the basic sciences required in those fields.
Careers in medical professions require several years of advanced study. Medical coursework is rigorous and entry into professional schools is very competitive. A number of medical schools require a foreign language.
