Mathematics, Science, and Technology Department Students
A group of students from our MST (Mathematics, Science, and Technology department) were selected to attend the day long Igniting the Dream of Medicine Conference. The conference offers high school and college students an overview of the medical school admission process, opportunities to network and hands-on experience in a state-of-the-art simulation center, physical exam instruction, a suture clinic and more. Seniors who will be applying to medical school in the near future, had an experience to do a mock interview. Some students were selected to present their research that they have conducted.
