1. Guaranteed and early admission to medical school.
IIT offers several premedical programs in engineering and medicine that guarantee admission to medical school. Both programs lead to a bachelor of science from IIT and advanced degrees from Chicago-area medical schools.

2. Prepared to succeed in top medical schools.
An IIT premedical education gives students the advanced quantitative and qualitative skills needed for entry into the nation’s most elite—and selective—medical schools. Recent competitive graduates have gone on to some of the best medical schools in the country.

3. Innovative curriculum and abundant research opportunities.
As a small, private institution, IIT has greater flexibility to respond to emerging fields of study, such as biomedical engineering, molecular biochemistry and biophysics, and others. Students also have opportunities to do research in their chosen fields of interest—working with faculty on breakthrough research—on campus and at such nearby facilities as Argonne National Laboratory and Fermilab. The result is an IIT professional prepared to understand and develop revolutionary advances in medical technology.

4. Chicago is a medical and research hub.
Chicago offers countless opportunities to volunteer, complete internships or work in medical settings. The area boasts seven medical schools, 18 teaching hospitals, more than 90 hospitals and medical centers and hundreds of clinics, and is home to the American Medical Association.
