2-3-semester-Master of Science Degree in Systems Medicine
First degree program in the Nation to introduce concepts of Personalized Medicine
With the sequencing of the human
genome and availability of high power computational methods and various
high through-put technologies, biomedical sciences and medicine are
undergoing a revolutionary change. The new field of systems medicine
(Personalized Medicine) is the application of systems level approaches
and tools to biomedical problems. A defining highlight of this program
is a capstone project/practicum/internship, which allows students to
work with some of the most renowned health institutions in the world,
such as the NIH and the FDA. This requirement ensures that students will
be able to develop prestigious vitae that can vault their education
and/or career to the next level. The Systems Medicine Master's Program
is designed for students who wish to pursue careers in academics,
industry, research, medical school and any health-related professions.
Our Year-long M.S. program offers the following main learning objectives:
- The curriculum has the option of being completed in either 2 or 3 semesters.
