What Departments Can I Choose From?


When one hears “Medical Explorations,” one might
tend to think that this program is geared only toward
those students interested in becoming doctors. However,
that is not the case. Since beginning with only six departments, Medical Explorations has grown to include many professions within the field of medicine. In addition to private practice doctors and physicians representing eight of the academic departments in the Graduate School of Medicine, students are also presented with the opportunity to learn from a variety of medical personnel including nurses, physical therapists and dietitians.
