Course variations

Course summary

This program offers the opportunity to enroll in special combined degree programs in medicine or dentistry that allow students to earn a B.S. in Chemical Biology from Stevens, and either the M.D. degree from the University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey (UMDNJ)-New Jersey Medical School, or the D.M.D. degree from UMDNJ-New Jersey Dental School, in a total of seven years. Students admitted into one of these special programs will be enrolled in the Accelerated Chemical Biology Program. Participants in these programs take a heavy course load during the first three years of the program at Stevens, and enter the medical or dental school at the start of the fourth year. Transfer credit for courses taken in the first year of study at the affiliated medical/dental school are used to complete the requirements of the B.S. degree. Enrollment in the accelerated chemical biology program is restricted to students admitted to these special programs.
