TRAM-MS - Translational Research and Applied Medicine (MS)

M-TRAM is a professional degree program that trains students to advance promising biomedical solutions from early-stage research to full regulatory approval. Technology focus areas include immunotherapy, gene therapy, vaccines, biomarkers, single-cell omics, and medical devices.

• Early Translation: Basic Science to Preclinical

• Clinical Translation: Clinical Investigation

• Late Translation: Medical Adoption and Commercialization

• Minimum of a Bachelor of Science (BS) degree from a recognized university

• CV/resume outlining previous clinical and/or basic research experience

• Official transcripts
