Learning Outcomes<\/h4>\n

At the completion of the MS in Medical Sciences Program, students are able to:<\/p>\n

    \n
  • Demonstrate an in-depth and integrated knowledge of the processes underlying normal and abnormal function in the human body in preparation for advanced studies in a healthcare field.<\/li>\n
  • Demonstrate the ability to work as part of a team to integrate and apply concepts in the medical sciences and draw linkages between structure and function at the level of molecules, cells, organs and systems.<\/li>\n
  • Demonstrate the ability to critically read and analyze the scientific literature, propose and test a hypothesis and communicate findings clearly, incorporating them into the existing body of knowledge.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    Testimonials from Recent Graduates<\/h4>\n

    \"\"The balance I have been able to achieve between class and life outside of school is in part because of my experience at the MS in Medical Sciences program. The MAMS coursework was incredibly relevant and gave me a very strong foundation (especially in histology, physiology, and biochemistry). I was also able to refine my studying skills and come into medical school with an idea of what I needed to do to succeed. The pace is still very fast, but I know I have the tools necessary to excel and balance course workload with other interests and obligations I have in life. The people I met in MAMS are some of the best friends anyone could ask for and continue to make up a large portion of my support system. They remind me that I am capable, and I can make it through those really tough days of medical school.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

    \"\"<\/p>\n

    The two most significant practices that I took from experiences in the MS in Medical Sciences program have been prudent self-care and work-life balance. Paying attention to the practices that recharge my battery so that I feel ready to go when it is time to start studying again have been essential. While the coursework has definitely helped me feel prepared in medical school, I would be completely lost without the self-care habits and work ethic I learned prior to entrance to Medical School!<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n
