Announcing the expansion of the Integrative Physiology undergraduate major.

Undergraduate students with career interests in the health professions and/or biomedical fields are encouraged to consider the integrative physiology in the Department of Integrative Physiology.  The Department is increasing the number of students admitted to the major.   Commencing with the fall semester 2008, students may apply for admission to the major after the first semester of the freshman year and enter the major as early as the start of the sophomore year.  Applications for entry into the major for the fall semester 2009 will be reviewed starting in March 2009. 
Integrative Physiology majors are primarily pre-health profession students. In 2007, the graduating class included 20 Honors graduates, 16 majors graduating with Distinction or High Distinction, and 21 Phi Beta Kappa candidates. Of these majors, 16 entered medicine, 8 physical therapy, 4 dentistry and 2 MS/PhD programs. Since 1987-88, the number of departmental graduates in the various health professions are represented by:

Medicine - 220
Physical Therapy - 112
Physcian Assistant - 26
Dentistry - 20
