Programme de Parcours Professionnel Pré-Médical

When looking to pursue a career in medicine, there is no particular major that medical schools prefer. It is recommended that students pick a major that challenges and interests them so they can stand out in the classroom. While medical schools want students who have developed a strong foundation in the sciences, they also want students to seek out courses that will help develop skills in independent thinking and decision making. Physicians must be able to communicate effectively and have the skills to express their thoughts and ideas.

When selecting Trine's Pre-Medical Professional Track, you will receive a cutting-edge education, which allows you to acquire the intellectual skills necessary to pursue a career in medicine. In addition, by following the pre-medical track you will earn a degree that provides opportunities for graduate work or employment if you choose not to pursue a career in medicine.

The Experience

As a small, private university, Trine is focused on teaching and the success of its undergraduates. Students meet regularly with their adviser and periodically with the Pre-Medical Professional Advisory Board to ensure they are on track to complete the necessary requirements for medical school. Trine's Rinker-Ross School of Health Sciences will provide you with a rigorous yet pertinent and meaningful education. Students develop a thorough understanding and comprehension of the principles of science to prepare them for medical school. You may opt to do undergraduate research by taking special topics or capstone courses.

It’s easy to talk about excellence . But it’s another thing altogether to truly commit yourself to it each and every day. To live it. To inspire it in everything around you. At Trine University, this commitment to excellence has formed the bedrock of our experience for well over a century. You’ll see it, and you’ll feel it, the second you step on our beautiful, 450-acre campus in Angola, Indiana. Few schools can say they’ve been getting it done at such a high level for nearly 130 years. We can.

A Commitment to Excellence

From our programs to our faculty, to our facilities, to the positive impact our work has on communities everywhere, we set our standards at Trine just a little higher. We can’t help it. It’s who we are. It’s why U.S. News & World Report and the Princeton Review consistently rank us among the Midwest’s best universities, and it’s why more than 1,900 companies around the world seek out our graduates.

An Innovative Spirit

Innovation is in our DNA at Trine. It always has been. In fact, the modern-day golf ball was patented by a Trine graduate. Our students enjoy an active and engaging learning experience, winning national awards for the hands-on work they accomplish. We’ve invested more than $8 million in the Division of Innovation and Technology. And we recently unveiled a new, high-tech Project Based Learning Center for Excellence.
