**YTL students will participate in international study experiences. Topics may vary as well as the specific semester in which an international opportunity is offered. Students may apply for travel grants for this course; travel grants are not guaranteed and students will be responsible for paying expenses. If a student cannot participate in an international study course, an alternate global experience must be approved as part of the curriculum.
It may be possible for students to enroll in additional elective classes. Appropriate electives could include, but are not limited to: Advanced Cell Biology, Histology, Parasitology, Virology, Epidemiology, Disease Vector Control, Pathogenic Bacteriology, Medicinal Chemistry, Metabolic Biochemistry, Biochemical Techniques, Medical Sociology, Biomedical Ethics, Human Sexuality, Health Communications, internship, and independent research.
