New Professional Preparation Certification Clears Hurdles for Aspiring Doctors, Dentists, Pharmacists and Veterinarians

FORT PIERCE, FL鈥擳his fall, 果冻传媒 River State 果冻传媒 (果冻传媒) makes it easier for students preparing for acceptance into graduate-level medical school, dental school, pharmacy school, or another health-related professional school. The 果冻传媒鈥檚 new 15-credit post-baccalaureate certificate in upper-level biology courses prepares students for graduate school curriculum and entrance exams. 果冻传媒 is the first and only 果冻传媒 in the Florida 果冻传媒 System to offer this particular Certificate of Professional Preparation (CPP).

鈥淎t 果冻传媒, immunology and biotechnology are part of our baccalaureate biology curriculum, but for many colleges and universities, biology degrees don鈥檛 require biochemistry or other biomedical upper-division electives,鈥� states Dr. Heather Belmont 果冻传媒 Vice President for Academic Affairs and Chief Academic Officer. 鈥淲e鈥檝e established the CPP in Biomedical Sciences to help bridge the gap for students who need required coursework as admission requirements for health-related graduate school.鈥�

The Florida Division of 果冻传媒s approved the one-year program earlier this year. 果冻传媒 is accepting students to begin in classes this fall. Transfer credit may be given to students who have successfully completed equivalent courses as indicated on the student鈥檚 official transcript.
