Internships/Research

As a pre-med student at Bethel, you will also have the chance to put what you learn in the classroom to use in practical situations. One common way is by doing research in collaboration with faculty members. A number of students also pursue summer research positions at the National Institutes of Health in Bethesda, Md., and in university laboratories across the country. Research experience can be particularly helpful in preparing you to become an independent learner, as students are increasingly required to be in modern medical school curricula. Other opportunities include shadowing physicians and other health-care professionals and participating in meetings and service projects of the Bethel Pre-Health Professions Club.
