Regardless of your chosen medical career path, DWU faculty members will help you succeed. As Dr. Mazzer says, “the best major for pre-med is the one that you love!” So, whatever you are passionate about... athletic training, biology, chemistry, biochemistry or psychology, we will help you prepare for the road ahead. Pair your courses with specialty internships, research opportunities and community health service projects, and you will be ready for your next step. As a pre-med or pre-health major, you’ll develop a plan early on with DWU professors and advisers to understand the requirements and application process of the professional school you wish to pursue. You’ll also work closely with faculty as you do specialty research and match with local health professionals to gain experience.
