- You will progress through them as part of a cohort and work in a blended learning environment.
- The majority of your course work will be completed through the Internet and self-study.
- You will visit the Penn State Brandywine campus approximately two weekends a month to conduct laboratory work and take exams.

Two-Year Option
For those working adults who do not wish the fast-track, one-year program, Penn State Brandywine now also offers a two-year Postbaccalaureate Medical Sciences Certificate program. This two year option has been set up for adults who may find the Accelerated program too demanding or time intensive. This option allows a working adult, who may have significant personal or job demands, to spread the course work over a two-year period.
Students will take all of the chemistry courses the first year and biology and physics the second year. The detailed schedule is below.
