M.D./Ph.D. Program

The College of Medicine and the School of Graduate Studies jointly sponsor a program leading to an excellent, combined M.D./Ph.D. degree. This program combines a medical education with an intensive research experience and is designed for students who are interested in pursuing a career in academic medicine. Students are supported with a stipend and a tuition scholarship throughout the duration of the program. This program, which graduated its first M.D./Ph.D. in 1967, has been highly successful.

In evaluating applicants for the program, considerable emphasis is placed on prior research experience. Applicants to this program must apply for admission separately to the College of Medicine and to the School of Graduate Studies. They are considered for the combined M.D./Ph.D. as part of the admissions process in both schools.

The deadline to have a completed application on file with both colleges is December 15.
