A heart for healing and a mind for science
If you have a passion for helping others and a drive to solve complex problems, Campbell University is a place where those two worlds meet. Located in the heart of North Carolina, the University has built a reputation as a premier destination for students pursuing careers in healthcare and medicine. Here, you are not just a number in a lecture hall; you are a future professional being trained to make a tangible difference in the lives of patients and the health of communities.
Programs built for your future
The University offers a diverse range of undergraduate paths, from traditional pre-medicine and nursing to specialized programs like clinical research and pharmaceutical sciences. One of the most exciting options is the 3+2 track, which allows high-achieving students to earn both a bachelor’s and a master’s degree in just five years. Because the University is home to its own medical, pharmacy, and health sciences graduate schools, the undergraduate curriculum is specifically designed to prepare you for the rigors of professional school. You will learn in the state-of-the-art Leon Levine Hall of Medical Sciences, utilizing a 9,000-square-foot simulation center that rivals those at the nation’s top medical centers.
Experience that matters
Beyond the classroom, student life for health science majors is incredibly active. You can join the Pre-med/Allied Health Honor Society to connect with mentors or gain hands-on experience through the Campbell University Community Care Clinic. This student-run clinic provides free healthcare to local underserved populations, giving you a chance to serve while you learn. Whether you are participating in medical mission trips or conducting research alongside faculty in the lab, you will find a supportive community of peers who share your commitment to service and excellence.

"I do oftentimes reflect back to my days at Campbell when one of our professors instilled in us that the best way to care for the patient is to care for the patient."
"Here at Campbell we foster that environment where... you have to give it your best shot and take a risk to get out there and make the change or be the change that you want to be."
