If you want the best possible preparation for getting into medical school — and becoming a world-class physician — our Pre-Medicine program is a perfect place to start.
At Marquette, pre-medicine isn't technically a major. Rather, it's an intention that you plan to attend medical school. That means you'll choose a related major, such as biomedical sciences, biological sciences or physiological sciences, and we'll guide you along the way, making sure you're building a strong foundation for acceptance to med school. You’ll also be connected to a community of medical faculty and professionals who will help you discover potential career paths in the medical field.
And Marquette’s values-based curriculum means ²â´Ç³Ü’l±ô cultivate the tools you need to not only improve patients' health but also make their lives better.
