Students benefit from:

  • Unparalleled undergraduate research opportunities
  • Multidisciplinary collaborations across the arts and sciences
  • Laboratory experience starting in your first year
  • Personalized learning environment with faculty who care about your success

Trent’s students are competitive in applying to professional medical schools because of the faculty commitment to teaching and mentoring undergrads, smaller class sizes, and the interactive hands-on approach to learning that is at the core of the Trent experience.

In Trent’s close-knit learning environment, your professors will know you, support you, and ensure that you get the experience and references you need to apply to professional programs or graduate schools with confidence.
