The study of human health and disease is increasingly drawing from multiple scientific disciplines. To address this shift, the Biomedical Science MS Program enables students to specialize in various biomedical science fields, providing education in human physiology, disease mechanisms, and the implementation of current and emerging treatment strategies. This graduate program suits both newcomers and professionals already working in the field, such as research technicians, clinical lab personnel, science educators, and scientific administrators.
Current professionals can use the program to improve their job performance or explore new career paths, while those in pharmaceutical or biotech industries can pursue specialized courses for skill advancement. Situated in Boston's thriving biomedical and biotech hub, the university offers MS students hands-on research opportunities in departmental laboratories, along with the choice to complete either a literature review or laboratory-based thesis for academic credit.
