Acandidate for admission to one of seven US podiatry schools must have the following prerequisites; successfully completed a baccalareate degree, complete the Medical College Admission Test (MCAT) applications and interviews. The course of instruction leading to the DPM degree is four years in length. The first two years are devoted largely to didactic instruction and laboratory work in the basic medical sciences, including anatomy, physiology, biochemistry, pharmacology, histology, neuroanatomy, embryology, microbiology, pathology, immunology and more. During the second & third years, students concentrate on courses in the clinical sciences, gaining experience in the college clinics, community clinics and accredited hospitals. Clinical courses include general diagnosis (history taking, physical examination, clinical laboratory procedures and diagnostic radiology/imaging), therapeutics (pharmacology, physical medicine, prosthetics/orthotics), surgery, anesthesia and operative podiatric medicine. After completion of the DPM degree, graduates must pass Podiatric Medical board examinations in order to qualify in taking individual state/provincial licencing exams. Postgraduate experience is realized by completing a 1-4 year surgical residency program, available in Canada & the US.
