    Overview

    You might know there are different kinds of doctors and nurses, but did you know there are more than 100 medical subspecialties? Clinical areas are defined by different parts of the body, diseases, injuries, and environments. If you are interested in biology and human health, you might want to consider a path toward a medical specialization such as cytopathology, vascular neurology, clinical genetics, or aerospace medicine. 

    The increasingly narrow expertise of doctors and nurses can mean greater knowledge of particular health problems, but it can also make it more difficult to understand how health concerns are caused by multiple sources and affect multiple parts of the body. Through a combination of lectures, expert clinical guest speakers, and field trips, you will gain a greater understanding of the range of clinical care professions, their relation to each other, some challenges that might not be obvious to patients, and the rewards that make such demanding careers worthwhile.
