Pathway programs are about more than preparing students for admission. They're about helping students discover where their interests, talents and goals can take them.

For Eileen Tran, the Undergraduate Pre-Health Program (UPP) provided mentorship, career exploration, hands-on experiences and a community that helped refine her path to dentistry. Next year, she'll join the DDS Class of 2031 at the CU Anschutz School of Dental Medicine.

Before then? She's taking a year to compete in professional pickleball. Read her story at the Newsroom link in our bio. by @cu_dental

Healthcare can feel like a series of separate appointments: a visit with a physician, a trip to the pharmacy, a dental checkup, a physical therapy session. But effective care requires collaboration and communication between healthcare professionals. Interprofessional education programs prepare students for successful collaboration in a healthcare setting. Read more at the Newsroom link in @cu_dental bio.
