Contacts: Professor Lauren Yaich
Students interested in earning a Doctor of Podiatric Medicine (DPM) must complete a minimum of 90 credits (95 percent of those accepted to schools of podiatric medicine have earned a minimum of 120 credits and a baccalaureate degree) at the University of Pittsburgh at Bradford before applying to a school of podiatry. Most students attending podiatry colleges have earned a baccalaureate degree in biology prior to admittance. Each professional school may have specific requirements, in addition to the minimum courses required by all podiatry colleges, so students are advised to check with the podiatry schools of their choice prior to completing their bachelor’s degree.
