biomedical sciences? is there such a major?

<p>I think majoring in something that deals with biology in relation to healthcare and medicine would be great for me, but all I can find in undergrad programs with the word 'biomedical' is engineering. But I'm not feeling that engineering is for me.</p>

<p>Are biology and biochemistry my only choices? What about public health with focus on natural sciences?</p>

<p>From the Marquette University website...

<p>Study the sciences from a human perspective. From anatomy and physiology to human microbiology, you'll develop an understanding of biological and chemical systems of the human body — and you'll develop a foundation for a career in the health professions.</p>

<p>You will have the rare opportunity with this major's human anatomy course to dissect and study human cadavers — something your friends at most other institutions wouldn't be able to do until medical or graduate school.</p>

<p>There are other colleges as well. Just do a search on biomedical science major...</p>
