MA/MS in Physiology, Pathology and Related Sciences

Sargent College runs this master's degree for students aiming at biomedical research careers. Graduates commonly move into hospital, pharmaceutical or biotech roles or on to doctoral study in physiology, biology or neuroscience. Two tracks exist. The research track is organized around a thesis and typically runs two years. The accelerated track swaps the thesis for a critical review of the literature and can wrap up in a single year. Expected outcomes include strong command of anatomy and physiology, practical research and health skills, collaboration, and the ability to spot exclusion and marginalization in health and medicine. The degree sits within a graduate community where students work closely with faculty advisors on a plan of study that suits their goals. Prospective applicants should consult the program page and the relevant school admissions pages for current requirements, deadlines and tuition, since those details are not given on the program page.
