Not to mention the unusual activities the work entails \u2013 examining and dissecting dead bodies. So a student would want to be sure this was indeed for her.<\/p>\n<p>This spring, Shank spent 30 hours in a practicum experience, shadowing five pathologists and one pathology assistant at Augusta Health in Fishersville, Va.<\/p>\n<p>After witnessing an autopsy, being around corpses and aiding in organ dissection, Shank says the experience confirmed her desire to continue along this career path and helped her understand more clearly the professional and emotional demands of the job.<\/p>\n<h3>Shadowing experience can help save time and money<\/h3>\n<p>That\u2019s the goal of the practicum, a one-semester course required for all <a href=\"https:\/\/emu.edu\/pphs\/\">pre-professional health sciences majors<\/a>, says Professor <a href=\"https:\/\/emu.edu\/faculty-staff\/?show=kls3969\">Kristopher Schmidt<\/a>.<\/p>\n<aside class=\"highlight highlight-right\">Shadowing can correct false impressions and prevent mistakes that can be costly in terms of time and money. \u2014 Dr. Julie Plumbley, chair, pathology department, Augusta Health<\/aside>\n<p>\u201cEMU has offered this course for years, and our alumni who go on to be successful practitioners in the medical fields often tell us that it was a pivotal experience in their development, as the first taste of what it might feel like to work in the profession,\u201d Schmidt said. \u201cOur students gain insights into what it means to work with colleagues and with patients.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Dr. Julie Plumbley, chair of the Augusta Health Pathology Department, says that hosting students such as Shank for shadowing opportunities provides a more accurate and realistic perspective of what may become their future profession.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOne of the great aspects of shadowing is its myth-busting ability,\u201d she said. \u201cPeople, quite understandably, often form their ideas of a profession they think they\u2019d like to pursue from television and movies. Of course, these dramatic renderings rarely reflect the reality of a particular type of work. Shadowing can correct false impressions and prevent mistakes that can be costly in terms of time and money.

Over the past 15 years, 80 percent of those who completed EMU&#8217;s pre-medical program and applied to medical school were accepted.\u00a0Over the past 10 years, students who completed EMU&#8217;s pre-professional health sciences program enjoyed a 100 percent acceptance rate to physical therapy schools and a 92 percent acceptance rate to physician&#8217;s assistant programs.
