MA/MS in Biological and Biomedical Sciences, Other

This master's program in Integrated Biomedical Science prepares students for academic and biomedical research settings and for careers across the biomedical sciences. It also serves as a stepping stone to further graduate or professional study in health fields. Students attend full-time on campus over five consecutive terms, which adds up to two years. The plan of study requires at least 37 credits, divided between core courses, a laboratory rotation, a course in a chosen research area and a substantial block of thesis research. Learning takes place inside an academic medical center, so students share the setting with nurses, physician assistants and medical students. Small cohorts keep contact with faculty close. Prospective students can view the curriculum, read about admissions and learn about scholarships and financial aid on the program page, which also lists career paths for graduates.
