An integral part of the program is the requirement for students to participate as Teaching Fellows in Medical and Graduate school courses as part of our Vesalius Teaching Apprenticeship. Research is a major component of the PhD curriculum. Students participate in laboratory rotations during the first year of graduate study and typically become affiliated with a research laboratory at the end of the first year. The PhD program is designed to produce well-rounded biomedical scientists who expect to include both research and teaching in their career.

They then use this rigorous environment to train to become an effective educator. The Vesalius Program offers small advanced teaching courses combined with one-on-one mentoring with experienced and award winning faculty. By the time they graduate, our students have extensive mentored teaching experience.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">For additional information please go to <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bu.edu\/vesalius\/\">http:\/\/www.bu.edu\/vesalius\/<\/a>; on this page you will find a link to the MS Degree Program Guideline.
