WHY NORTHEASTERN?
From my first visit to campus, I felt that Northeastern’s highest priority was to
prepare me for life after college. I thought that the professional experiences, the
connections, and the opportunities abroad offered a unique, multi-disciplinary, and
experiential education that would set me up for the real world—and that’s exactly
what has happened.
RYAN’S NORTHEASTERN JOURNEY:
I began my Northeastern journey undeclared and explored a range of different classes. After taking a fascinating psychobiology course, I declared my major as neuroscience.
My final co-op, working as a research assistant with the Sports Medicine Service at Mass General, was particularly influential. I was able to shadow physicians and conduct clinical research in the field of orthopaedics and sports medicine. This experience and the connections I made there gave me confidence in applying to medical school.
