This unique premedical program is jointly sponsored by the University of Delaware and the Jefferson Medical College in Philadelphia and serves to prepare students to deal with society’s changing health care needs. Providing for a balanced education in liberal arts, sciences and professional studies, the curriculum includes traditional courses in science and mathematics as well as in the humanities, ethics, social sciences, economics, political sciences and health policy. Problem-based instruction, group discussions and practica in clinical settings are unique aspects of the program. Medical Scholars work toward a Bachelor of Arts in Liberal Studies degree and receive conditional acceptance to the Jefferson Medical College as early as their sophomore year at Delaware after completing at least a year in an interest group.
