Which Connecticut colleges offer allergist/immunologist degree programs?
Answer:
The University of Connecticut School
of Medicine in Farmington and Yale University School of Medicine in New Haven are the two medical schools in Connecticut.

Allergists and immunologists begin by getting their Bachelor’s Degree.  From there, they also need a four-year medical degree and a three-year stint in either internal medicine or pediatrics.  Healthcare is the number-one hiring field across the country right now – and with one in five persons dealing with allergies, this is a lucrative field.

While obtaining the undergraduate degree, those wishing to pursue becoming an allergist should be sure to include some basic prerequisites in their studies, including premedical classes, humanities, physics, math, social sciences, and organic and inorganic chemistry.  Medical school will include classes on anatomy, biochemistry, physiology, pharmacology, psychology, microbiology and various general medicine courses.  Those will fill your first two years in medical school.  From there, you’ll have two years of clinical training.

There are fifteen teaching hospitals in Connecticut, including the University of Connecticut health center in Farmington and the Yale-New Haven Hospital in New Haven. 

Once you’ve completed medical school, those wishing to become an allergist must also add three more years of training – either in internal medicine or in pediatrics.  Then you must be board certified before you begin your own practice, which usually comes after a fellowship study (a period in which you train/study specifically for the allergist board exams) in an allergy/immunology program.
