The objective of the two Master of Science programs offered by Tulane Pathology is to provide students with opportunities to study the cellular and molecular mechanisms of human diseases through didactic teaching and research training. These programs are designed not only to enhance the academic credentials for individuals wishing to pursue a career in a health-related science, but also to ease th
e transition to medical/graduate school. MS IN MOLECULAR MEDICINE (ONE YEAR PROGRAM)
This is a full-time two semester post-baccalaureate program leading to a Master of Science in Molecular Medicine. This program is designed to provide a solid foundation in human diseases and their molecular pathways for students considering applying to medical, dental, and other health-related professional schools. Recipients of the MS in Molecular Medicine will demonstrate advanced knowledge in the molecular and cellular basis of disease and a basic understanding of biomedical research. MS IN MOLECULAR AND CELLULAR PATHOBIOLOGY (TWO YEAR PROGRAM)
This is a full-time two-year post-baccalaureate program leading to a Master of Science in Molecular and Cellular Pathobiology. This program 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. Recipients of the Master of Science in Molecular and Cellular Pathobiology will demonstrate advanced knowledge in the molecular and cellular basis of disease and develop quantitative and qualitative research skills in data collection and analyses. Graduates of this program will possess the required skills to conduct independent research.
