抖阴pro School of Medicine Medical Anatomy and Physiology Certificate Program (MAPP) is a two-semester academic experience for post-baccalaureate scholars considering careers in medicine, biomedical sciences or other health care professions.
Benefits of the MAPP Program
Offered through SLU's Center for Anatomical Science and Education (CASE), scholars may also apply for the CASE master's degree (M.S.) graduate programs. Core courses successfully completed in the MAPP program apply toward the completion of the M.S. in anatomy. These programs provide graduate-level academic experiences, including opportunities to serve as tutors and teaching assistants in advanced anatomical science courses, or to facilitate entry into medical school, other healthcare professional fields, and biomedical doctoral programs.
In addition to this, MAPP students:
- Take some courses with first-year medical students
- Who complete the program in good academic standing receive a post-baccalaureate certificate in medical anatomy and physiology
- Are given the opportunity to participate in MCAT-exam preparation
- Learn from faculty who are a diverse team of clinicians and scientists dedicated to teaching, training and advising students
- Experience hands-on training in gross anatomy and neuroanatomy laboratories
