| Actually, while Premed isn't a major, there is a Premedical program. In addition to taking the Premedicine Track required courses, you also have an adviser[s]. In fact, most medical schools require that you submit the coveted Premedical Committee letter that this department will provide you with as a premedical student.
I was told by a school official from the Office of Undergraduate Research that she is not able to place freshmen into research unless they have previous research experience.
And yeah, of course you can still do research during your undergraduate years without doing it as a freshman, but, like I said, I'm really interested in research and would like to get involved as soon as possible.
Might any present UM premed students be able to offer some insight into this topic? |
