Pre-Medical Society

UMKC students can explore opportunities for a variety of healthcare careers through the Pre-Medical Society.  This student-run organization meets regularly throughout the fall and spring semesters and provides a way to connect with peers to discuss topics of interest to pre-health students.  The Pre-Medical Society coordinates guest speakers from the healthcare field including current students and admissions representatives from a variety of health professional schools.  Students also participate in a number of volunteer activities and learn of the many opportunities to become involved with Kansas City’s healthcare field.  The numerous leadership positions within the organization allow students the opportunity to enhance their leadership skills for their future profession.  Pre-Medical Society students commonly also join the American Medical Student Association (AMSA) and participate in regional conferences sponsored by AMSA.

Active involvement in the Pre-Medical Society expands experiences within the healthcare field as well as provides leadership opportunities—experiences that medical schools recognize favorably.
