MS Programs
GSBS offers two MS programs. One, the Master's in Pharmacology and Drug Development, is in the Basic Science Division; the Master's in Clinical & Translational Science is part of the Clinical Research Division.
MS in Pharmacology & Drug Development
The MS in Pharmacology & Drug Development program (PDD) is a two-year program designed for candidates who hold a baccalaureate degree and wish to obtain additional training in pharmacology that will enhance their professional and career options, but who do not seek the intensive training required for a PhD.
A strong combination of didactic study coupled with bench research allows trainees to become well-versed in state-of-the-art approaches. Introductions to human subjects research and regulatory affairs are also provided.
Graduates of this program often pursue careers in the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries. Some graduates also pursue additional training at the doctoral level.
MS in Clinical & Translational Research
The MS in Clinical & Translational Research program is a two-year, full-time program with concentrations in Clinical Discovery and Investigation, Clinical Effectiveness Research, and Practice to Policy Translational Research.
The MS in Clinical & Translational Research program is a two-year, full-time program with concentrations in Clinical Discovery and Investigation, Clinical Effectiveness Research, and Practice to Policy Translational Research.
Some students enter this program and move to the PhD in Clinical & Translational Science after successfully completing coursework and a qualifying examination.
