Pre-Medicine Advising
The Pre-Med career track is the pathway to becoming an Allopathic (MD) or Osteopathic (DO) physician which affords you a lifelong path of learning and community engagement. Becoming a doctor is not limited to general practice but a variety of specialties such as, but not limited to pediatrics, surgery, emergency medicine, cardiology and psychiatry.
While pursuing a bachelor's degree at Tennessee Tech, dental career track students will also incorporate prerequisite courses required by medical schools. Graduate professional schools accept many majors, so students are encouraged to explore a major according to their interests and strengths.
Acceptance into medical school is highly competitive. Our advisors assist students in navigating the academic, extra-curricular and healthcare criteria required for a strong application to graduate professional school.
