公共卫生服务计划

The 学前健康科学专业 (产后大出血) program at SPU offers specialized advising and coursework to prepare students for graduate-level professional training in a wide variety of health care fields. Our graduates become physicians, veterinarians, physical and occupational therapists, physician assistants, public health specialists, dentists, pharmacists, genetic counselors, podiatrists, and optometrists. 在过去 five years, SPU students have achieved an acceptance rate of 90% for admission to medical schools, compared to a national average of about 40%.

SPU认为 students applying to professional schools should demonstrate academic competence, a willingness to serve others, and a familiarity with the demands 他们选择的职业. Accordingly, the 产后大出血 program helps guide students to succeed in appropriate academic coursework, to commit to volunteer service, 并观察工作中的专业人士. Above all, students are encouraged to use their college experience as a time to develop a strong sense of vocation and the ability to clearly articulate their professional and personal goals.

pph课程

产后大出血计划的正式组成部分由一系列独特的1学分和2学分课程组成,这些课程提供指导以及灵感和同伴支持. 这些课程提供了自我反思的机会,以补充知识渊博的教师和临床专业人员的指导.

  • 学生参加产后大出血 1200 (Introduction to the 健康 Professions, (1学分),在第一年学习更多网易彩票app各种医疗保健专业的知识,并探索影响医疗保健系统的当前问题.
  • 学生报名参加产后大出血 1800 (健康 Care Career Seminar, 1 credit) during their second year. The 产后大出血 1800 seminar delves more deeply into the process of vocational discernment. 1200和1800的课程都包括阅读和写作作业,以及专业人士的演讲,他们可以提供内部人士的观点. 这些课程还为学生提供实践指导,让他们开始志愿者工作和临床观察,作为他们积极的专业发展的一部分.

在他们的大学生活中, 学生与他们的指导老师见面,以监督他们在所有学科的进展. 学生应该选择既具有挑战性又符合个人兴趣的课程. Low grades during the first year are not career-ending, 但对于学生来说,在大学学习过程中取得一个上升的平均绩点(GPA)是很重要的. 可以重复一门课程或参加类似的高级课程来证明对某一学科的掌握. 注意3.0 is the minimum GPA for most graduate programs; medical schools require a GPA of at least 3.5.

Most 产后大出血 students major in Physiology, 生物化学, 或应用人类生物学, 哪些课程包括进入不同类型的研究生培训项目通常需要的课程. 然而, pre-professional students may major in any discipline they choose, 前提是他们参加额外的课程,以满足进入专业学校的特定先决条件.

除了生物学,所有学生都应该探索人文和社会科学, 化学, 物理, 和数学. 有能力和富有同情心的护理提供者必须培养与患者有效沟通的技能,并了解他们的身体状况, 精神上的, 情感需求.

phs应用工作坊

  • Students who have completed 产后大出血 1200 and 产后大出血 1800, 并计划申请医学专业, 牙科, 或者兽医学校, 参加 pph 3400 (Application Workshop, 2 credits) in the autumn of their final year.
  • Students pursuing other types of training are also encouraged to 参加 pph 3400.

到这里为止, 学生应该达到可接受的平均成绩,并积累了大量的志愿服务和工作见习时间. The workshop is an opportunity for students to compose a personal statement, to request letters of recommendation from 教授 and nonacademic mentors, and to prepare other application materials.

  • Students typically apply to professional schools in the spring of their final year at SPU or one or two years after graduation.

毕业生即使在离开SPU后也可以继续利用产后大出血计划. 对于许多申请者来说, 在专业学校申请和入学之间的“桥梁”一年或两年是进一步个人成长的宝贵时间. Some professional schools favor older applicants with meaningful work experience, 这使得提前申请者——那些在大学第三年结束时申请而没有上过桥年的人——处于明显的劣势. 产后大出血系统鼓励每个学生制作一份有竞争力的申请,并选择适当的时间申请专业学校.

公共服务计划委员会访谈

A key part of the 产后大出血 process for applicants to medical, 牙科, and veterinary medical schools is the “mock interview,在这个环节中,申请人将接受斯坦福大学教职员工小组的询问,并收到形成性的反馈,以便在进入专业学校进行实际面试之前加以考虑. 模拟面试之后, 委员会主席代表面试委员会写一封信,概述申请人的成就和对医学或牙科培训的准备. 综合委员会信补充了个人推荐信中提供的评估,被认为是传达每个申请人作为保健专业人员成功潜力的极好机制.

Only applicants who have participated in a formal committee process, such as the one followed by the SPU 产后大出血 program, 是否有资格在申请专业学校时附上委员会的信. 然而, 所有产后大出血学生——不仅仅是医学预科和牙科预科的学生——在选择专业和准备申请时,都可以从整个产后大出血课程的支持和指导中受益.

给学生的建议

通往研究生培训计划的道路对每个学生和每个专业都是不同的. 请浏览 pph网站 了解更多网易彩票app预专业课程的详细信息和最常见的职业路径信息.

  • Choose an appropriate major and add the necessary supplemental courses. 调查感兴趣的特定学校的入学要求,检查是否有任何必修课程不是该专业的必修课程. Most professional schools accept students from a variety of majors, as long as prerequisite courses have been completed. 精心策划, most supplemental courses can be completed while a student is an SPU undergraduate. In a few cases, additional courses may be needed following graduation. 通过文科、商业、心理学等选修课来完善STEM教育. Be sure to include classes that emphasize cross-cultural competencies.
  • 安排工作见习; which is unpaid observation of clinical professionals at work. 到第二年结束时,学生应该至少有20个小时的实习时间,到第四年结束时至少有50个小时的实习时间.
  • Volunteer for community service outside of campus. 学生在第二年末至少有20小时的志愿服务时间,在第四年末至少有50小时的志愿服务时间. 对一个组织的长期定期承诺远比在多个地方的零星参与要好.
  • Participate in extracurricular activities. 俱乐部 related to a particular career area are a good choice. Long-term participation with leadership responsibilities is advisable.
  • 培养有意义的关系 与导师, 顾问, 教授, 监事, 以及相关的专业人士,这样就可以联系到这些人,为专业学校写推荐信. 写日志, 杂志, or e-portfolio of all formal and informal professional development experiences, 包括阅读和思考, to consult when applying to graduate programs.
  • 准备并参加入学考试 适合研究生课程. 考虑一下是否完成自学课程或参加私人备考课程会有所帮助. Students should plan to take the entrance exam once and do well. 在没有准备的情况下参加考试,之后又重新参加考试,这表明计划不周. Some entrance exams are scheduled only on certain dates, and scores may not be available for several weeks.
  • Optional: Seek summer jobs or internships or part-time work in a clinical setting. 考虑参加学术活动,如荣誉项目或实验室研究. Demonstrate leadership and reliability through work as a laboratory teaching assistant, 导师, 住宅的助理, 同行的导师, 等.
