The two-year thesis-required program, MS in Biochemistry and Applied Bioinformatics leads to a Master of Biomedical Science in Biochemistry and Applied Bioinformatics degree. Our distinctive program emphasizes student development in five areas to broaden and strengthen their academic foundation, and equips students with basic and advanced lab and Bioinformatics skills for a career in academic or industrial research.
The MS in Bioethics and Medical Humanities is a 33-credit hour program, completed in either one or two years, resulting in a Master of Science in Bioethics and Medical Humanities degree. Students in this program will carefully examine ethical issues in medicine and how to best resolve them, and how the practice of health care is affected, improved, and better understood through humanities-based studies in narrative, history, and more.
The MS in Molecular and Cellular Pathobiology is a full-time two-year thesis-based post-baccalaureate program leading to a Master of Science in Molecular and Cellular Pathobiology. This program, in the Department of Pathology, is designed to enrich the scientific research experience and improve the academic credentials of students interested in careers in the biotech and pharmaceutical industries, as well as in academia.
The MS in Biomedical Informatics is a four-semester program designed to enrich and improve credentials of graduates to apply for Biomedical Informatics analyst, data scientist, or other healthcare-related profession career.
