Curriculum
Master of Science in Biomedical Sciences
The Master of Science in Biomedical Sciences (MBS) degree is a 30-credit program. Twenty-four credits are required courses, while the remaining credits can be elective coursework. You can finish our comprehensive biomedical curriculum in as few as three semesters, but we understand that balancing personal and professional responsibilities can be challenging. Another, more flexible, option is to take fewer courses each semester and complete your studies over a longer period of time.
