Project Lead the Way (PLTW) Biomedical Science
The Project Lead the Way (PLTW) Biomedical Science Program is a 4-year program developed for students interested in any career within the medical field. This program is designed for highly motivated students who can work independently as well as in groups. These courses will help you to learn more about medical topics, but also will teach you skills in communication, collaboration, and medical technology. Students can take as many of the courses as they would like, but only one course per year. Take the survey at the end of this document to determine if PLTW is right for you.
