The Science of Disparities Concentration part of STEM Futures:Products
The Biomedical Sciences Program (BMD) is a undergraduate major at the University of Alabama at Birmingham with approximately 700 undergraduate students. As the major has expanded, it is clear we need to create "pathways"/concentrations that allow undergraduate students to expand their expertise into sub-specialities within the biomedical sciences field. The goal of this work is to create a Science of Disparities concentration within BMD, that will be designated on student transcripts and provide students the opportunity to create unique expertise that accommodates their personalized career goals.

Describes the the Science Disparities Concentration in the Biomedical Sciences Program (BMD), which is a undergraduate major at the University of Alabama at Birmingham. As the major has expanded, it is clear we need to create "pathways"/concentrations that allow undergraduate students to expand their expertise into sub-specialties within the biomedical sciences field. The goal of this work is to create a Science of Disparities concentration or pathway within BMD, that will be designated on student transcripts and provide students the opportunity to create unique expertise that accommodates their personalized career goals.
