Prospective Students: alternative 1
The Georgetown PBPM program is designed for “career change” students and offers rigorous training in medical/dental pre-requisite laboratory sciences and math.
Postbac students enroll in the same science and math courses offered to our undergraduate students, ensuring that all of our students receive the same high-quality education. PBPM students attend lectures with undergraduates at classes offered during the day. Our program offers some lab sections, particularly for PBPM students, in order to foster a sense of community and opportunities for study together.
