In our stimulating and supportive environment, you will build a strong foundation in sciences and humanities at the East Falls campus, preparing you for success in upper-division courses for an MS in Biotechnology, Cytotechnology and Cell Sciences, or Medical Laboratory Science at the Center City campus. Students in the Health Sciences dual degree programs take courses with other pre-medical and health students, while experiencing college life on the East Falls campus

Students will complete a minimum of 90 credits of pre-professional coursework in the first three years of study on the East Falls campus. These fulfill all necessary professional program prerequisite coursework. Students who interview and maintain progression criteria are guaranteed to matriculate into the professional phase.
