Physician Alumni Lecture Series

Are you interested in a career in medicine?

The Physician Alumni Lecture Series was created in 2012 to help Binghamton University Pre-Health students learn more about the medical profession and introduce them to the vast array of offerings that medicine provides. Physician Alumni return to campus to share their personal, academic and professional experiences about the good, the bad and the ugly of the medical profession with pre-health students.

What does being a physician really mean?
