"Networking with Clarson alumni in the medical field enabled me to find a summer research position in neurobiology at a prestigious medical school. The opportunity to do medically relevant research as an undergraduate is a key step in my journey to becoming a doctor." - Courtney Grayson '09 Biomolecular Science, Pre-Med

Every health-related field is being driven by advances in science and technology. That's why a university rich in technology provides an ideal foundation for careers in the health sciences, medicine or health care. Clarkson's rigorous programs, real-world learning opportunities, and teamwork that spans disciplines will also benefit you at every stage of your career.
Health science fields range from biotechnology, pharmaceutical sales, technical support, and organizational psychology to industrial safety, mental health, and health administration. Professional titles include: medical doctor, counselor, physical therapist, dentist, psychologist, industrial hygienist, veterinarian, medical research scientist, and hospital administrator. A number of science degree programs at Clarkson provide an especially strong career foundation, including biology, biomolecular science, chemistry, environmental health science, physics, and psychology.
Clarkson operates a Center for Health Sciences in partnership with Canton-Potsdam Hospital. Home to both the University's program in Physical Therapy and to the hospital's Physical Rehabilitation Services, the center offers outstanding resources to undergraduates interested in the health sciences.
The University has many other well-equipped laboratories for students. And there are lots of National Science Foundation (NSF), National Institute of Health (NIH), and corporate grants to support research.
From diagnosis to treatment, change has become a constant in the health sciences. This is especially true at the intersection of disciplines, such as engineering and medicine, psychology and physiology, health and computers, or toxicology and management. Clarkson's emphasis on providing knowledge and skills that span disciplines will give you a distinctive career advantage. In addition, our Career Center organizes co-ops and internships in hospitals, clinics, research laboratories, and other appropriate settings.
