The Eastern Virginia Medical School Medical Master's degree is a one or two year, special master's program. The majority of the courses are medical school courses taken with first-year medical students. This post-baccalaureate program is an academic record enhancing program designed to make students more competitive for allopathic and osteopathic medical schools as well as dental schools. ‌

The program provides an opportunity for highly motivated students to improve their academic credentials by demonstrating their academic abilities in a rigorous medical school environment. For this reason, it is particularly suitable to help students make themselves more competitive applicants to medical or dental programs.... [-]

Medicine with Industrial Specialisation focuses on developing a new medicine and better treatments of diseases. The education combines medicine, pharmacology, science, and technology.

You get the opportunity to work with for example stem cells and reconstruction of tissues, clinical and pre-clinical testing of drugs and interactions between marketing and health economics and more.

The master´s programme in Medicine with Industrial Specialization is composed of three health-related profiles: Biomedicine, Translational Medicine, and Medical Market Access. As a student, you get to choose which profile you want.

Large projects carried out in groups of students are a substantial part of the programme, through which students design and implement solutions to “real life” problems.... [-]

Overview

The Master of Medical Sciences programs are designed to cater to the needs and aspirations of individual students, the expressed needs of the relevant institutions in the UAE and the current strengths in different disciplines in the CMHS. Currently, the structure of the M. Med. Sc. curriculum is organized into three tracks: “Microbiology & Immunology”, “Pharmacology and Toxicology” and “Biochemistry and Molecular Biology (BMB)”.

Biochemistry & Molecular Biology The Biochemistry and Molecular Biology track is a multi-disciplinary program which provides students with a foundation in Biochemistry and Molecular and Cellular Biology as well as intensive state-of-the-art laboratory research training. Research areas in the Biochemistry Department focus on the Biochemical, Molecular and Cellular basis of human diseases including Cancer Biology, Diabetes, and Neurodegenerative disorders, in addition to areas in Gene Regulation, Bioinformatics, Proteomics, Epigenetic, Signal Transduction, Oxidative Stress, Mitochondrial Dysfunction, and Immunology and Biochemical Toxicology. Microbiology & Immunology The Microbiology and Immunology track provides students with core knowledge at the respective levels in basic immunology, the pathogenesis of autoimmune and infectious diseases, the molecular details of host-pathogen interactions, the molecular biology and molecular epidemiology of selected pathogens, and the genetic manipulation of pathogens. Pharmacology & Toxicology The Department of Pharmacology and Therapeutics offers a multidisciplinary program designed to prepare highly qualified individuals to be successful scientists in academic and industrial biomedical research. The pharmacology and toxicology faculty members carry out research in cancer pharmacology, neuropharmacology, cardiovascular pharmacology, drug metabolism, toxicology, proteomics, molecular pharmacology, receptors and signal transduction,...

Overview

The Research Master program in Health Sciences aims to provide students with a thorough understanding of methods in either clinical or public health research. Specializations include clinical epidemiology, epidemiology, public health epidemiology, genetic and molecular epidemiology, and health economic analysis. After completion, candidates will have the knowledge, understanding, and skills to propose state-of-the-art studies, write excellent study protocols, perform the research, analyze the data using modern statistical techniques, make defensible causal inferences, come to justified conclusions, and write outstanding research papers. Depending on the choice of specialization, the candidate will focus on for example clinical trials, population studies, public health interventions, or modeling studies.... [-]

Master of Research in Health Research

Details

This programme provides a first step in research training for health professionals currently working in clinical areas who want to develop a health-related research component to their career. Guided by a supervision team you will undertake a research project and gain confidence in using research methods, project management, and research governance.

There is an opportunity to work alongside existing research staff on established research projects. In Nursing and Midwifery, we are particularly interested in supporting applicants who wish to research palliative and end of life care across the lifespan, and in various healthcare settings.... [-]
