The bachelor's degree/M.D. program, offered jointly by Douglass
College and the University of Medicine and Dentistry of New
Jersey-Robert Wood Johnson Medical School, permits selected students to
obtain a bachelor's degree and a medical degree in seven or eight years
of study. Students may apply to this program at the conclusion of their
sophomore year and, if admitted, are granted provisional acceptance
into the medical school. A second review of the student's credentials
during the fourth year of the program is required to qualify for formal
admission to the medical school. In the junior year, students begin to
take medical science courses along with courses in fulfillment of their
undergraduate degree. The bachelor`s degree typically is awarded by the
end of the fifth year, and the medical degree by the end of the eighth
year. For further information, contact the Douglass Health Professions
Office.
Also available are an articulated bachelor's
degree/M.D. program with the University of Medicine and Dentistry of
New Jersey-New Jersey Medical School and a bachelor's degree/doctor of
dental medicine program with the University of Medicine and Dentistry
of New Jersey-New Jersey Dental School.
