At Stevens, students can pursue their Stevens major in addition to following a pathway to a career in health professions, such as Pre-Medicine, Pre-Dental and more. The Pre-Health Program offers students the flexibility to pursue a wide range of academic interests while completing their pre-professional requirements. Students can pursue any major while making sure to build in the appropriate prerequisites and experiences. Established four-year plans are currently available for students majoring in science, technology and society; quantitative social science; business and technology; mathematics; physics; biomedical engineering; chemistry; biology; and chemical biology. Students also have the flexibility to pursue other majors not listed above.
The program is led by the Director of Pre-Health Advising in collaboration with the Health Professions Advisory Committee, a dedicated team of faculty and staff who provide mentorship, career counseling and application support throughout the pre-health journey. Students can identify they are interested in a pre-health program (pre-medicine, pre-dental, etc.) as soon as they arrive on campus their first year. Students normally apply to health professional schools in their junior or senior year. Guidance is available to both current students and alumni interested in pursuing professional programs such as:
