The BMS Program offers a curriculum tailored for those looking to strengthen or shift their educational foundation to meet personal, professional, or career development objectives. This program significantly boosts academic readiness for students aiming to enter medical, dental, veterinary, or pharmaceutical degree programs. Additionally, it supports career growth for professionals working in biomedical research and science education. Applicants must hold a bachelor's degree in fields such as biological, chemical, biomedical (excluding medical degrees), pharmaceutical sciences, or related legal studies.

This program focuses on human biology through an interdisciplinary approach, drawing courses from multiple Basic Science Departments within Wayne State University's School of Medicine. Students complete core medical science courses across four distinct disciplines, supplemented by advanced biomedical electives. To graduate, participants must finish a literature review project and write an essay analyzing a contemporary issue in biomedical science.

Qualification Requirements

An undergraduate major in biological or chemical science is preferred. Students with other backgrounds will be considered for admission based on their academic record, competence for the BMS curriculum, and their experience. The applicant's academic record must include undergraduate-level courses in biology (at least two semesters) and chemistry (at least four semesters), additional science courses will be examined for evidence of academic aptitude for an interdisciplinary basic biomedical sciences curriculum. The applicant's transcript must report a held, or near completion, bachelor's degree or equivalent. To be considered for Regular Admission, the applicant's transcript(s) must report an earned cumulative grade point average of at least 3.0 (on a 4.0 system). An earned cumulative grade point average of less than 3.0 may be considered for Qualified Admission. The BMS program is not permitted to recommend acceptance to the BMS Program under the Graduate Non-Degree Admission category but will forward suitable applications as judged appropriate. The BMS Program will not consider applications for Post-Bachelor Admission because the BMS curriculum is a graduate, not an undergraduate, curriculum.
