Careers in Medicine/Health

We want to help you achieve your career goals and encourage success in your preparation for medical/health schools.  Along the way, you can expect challenges, including rigorous coursework and time management.  Your interests may change over the years based on coursework, independent studies, and experiential learning.  We encourage you to meet with your major academic advisor and specific medical or healthcare advisor for assistance in planning your course schedule.

After consideration of advice from different sources, it is up to you to choose a major, course selection, and career path suitable to your learning style, interests, and likelihood for success.  The best time to take required courses (e.g. Chemistry, Physics) for your major and post-graduate school is when you are ready and best prepared.  Keep in mind that should you choose to wait a year or more to take College Chemistry, your timeline to complete all Chemistry requirements for Medical School admission will differ from students who take it in their first year.  Successful admission to many postgraduate medical and health professional schools depends on good grades in required courses, research experiences from independent studies, and clinical observations and internships.


Students should check individual medical/health school admission requirements when planning coursework.

Internships

An internship is an opportunity that combines learning with work and offers a unique experience for career exploration. The essential component is that as you are working, you have structured and intentional objectives to learn about a career field. An internship or related experience can help you decide whether that field is really for you. Enrollment in an internship becomes part of your academic load. Students can explore careers, develop work skills, and build relationships with potential employers.

KNH Internships are directed practical experiences for students under the guidelines of on-site and KNH faculty supervisors.

Courses

  • Undergraduate: KNH 340, 420, 420G
  • Graduate: 610, 640

Contact Eric Brooks at brooksek@兔子先生OH.edu regarding summer internships.

Learn more through the Center for Career Exploration and Success .

Independent Study

Independent study is a course taken with ongoing supervision by the instructor for rigorous learning and knowledge enhancement in a particular area of interest beyond the courses offered. Enrollment in an independent study becomes part of the student’s academic load.  With permission of the instructor, students may register for zero to six credit hours each semester with no more than a total of ten credit hours per academic year.

KNH requires two forms to be completed upon discussion with your faculty supervisor regarding the title of your independent study, the tasks you will be completing, evaluation weightings, and the rationale for your independent study. Incomplete forms will not be processed.

Courses

  • Undergraduate: KNH 177, 177R, 277, 277R, 377, 377R, 477, 477R
