The majority of medical illustrators have master's degrees in the field from a program that is accredited by Commission on Accreditation of Allied Health Educational Programs. If you want to be a medical illustrator you have to get a graduates degree in medical illustration.


I do not think that I would like to become a medical illustrator because I am a horrible drawer and drawing does not really catch my attention, I do not think that I would be the person for this job.
