B.S. in Biomedical Sciences

The interdisciplinary Biomedical Science major (BMS) is designed to provide students in-depth training in the applied life sciences. The program prepares students for employment by public sector and government agencies, private industry, academic institutions, as well as graduate study in medicine, veterinary medicine, and related biomedical and health fields. Students will begin their studies with foundational science courses including biology, physics, general chemistry, organic chemistry, math, and statistics, and then choose an area of concentration (anatomy and physiology, environmental public health or microbiology and infectious disease) to tailor their educational experiences to specific career objectives. The basic science curriculum meets many requirements for entrance into professional schools. Experiential learning opportunities are encouraged and could include participating in laboratory research, teachingtutoring in selected courses, volunteer experiences and leadership positions within student club(s), study abroad, internships, and honors curriculum. These opportunities are encouraged with the student’s interests and career goals as the focus.

Students need to submit their most-recent transcripts or mark sheets. If a record is not in English, a certified literal English translation must accompany the official transcript. Only transcripts sent directly from the school or stamped and sealed are considered official. Admissions decisions are provisional until we receive your final transcript verifying graduation. In general, students with a 3.0+ GPA (on a 4.0 scale) and a steady or upward trend in grades are admitted to CSU.
