Albert E. Dotson Sr. Premedical Program

The Albert E. Dotson, Sr., Pipeline Program for Least Represented in Medicine is a program for FIU undergraduates. Once accepted, the curriculum support will continue until the student graduates. Through this program, we hope to increase the number of underrepresented applicants gaining entrance to medical school.

Program Highlights

The DOTSON Program includes activities that span the following areas: academic enrichment, learning skills development, clinical medicine, communication skills, counseling, career development, and character building.
