"As a pre-health major I have been able to explore public health research. I’ve been to Ecuador with Engineers Without Borders, where we created and carried out surveys to help assess diet, health, and sanitation issues in Las Mercedes. I did research for a semester in El Centro, a center for health disparities at the school. This past summer, I was selected to participate in the Minority Health Disparities International Research Training for a two-month trip to Chile to engage in public health research.”

“It put me at ease knowing I would enter as a freshman and graduate with all the classes worked into my major that I needed for a physical therapy graduate program. Having all the classes worked into my major has allowed me the possibility to take other classes and double major."

"The University of Miami’s secret weapon for getting me into medical school was its emphasis on student life and diversity. The MCAT Prep Program offered at the Miller School of Medicine opened the door for me to medicine through the free MCAT training and the supportive community of mentors it provided."

"This has been a path for me to explore topics freely outside of the typical science classes in order to aid my medical career in the future. I no longer see my education as a single road, but rather a network of pathways. Innovation stems from the willingness to converge disciplines, to apply concepts in a way they haven’t been applied before."
