International Ph.D Program in the Medical Sciences
Overview
The Ph.D. program in Medical Sciences aims to train future generations of researchers in the biomedical sciences.
Students enrolled in the Ph.D. program are expected to devote most of their time and effort to research work.
Choice of an area of specialization is conditional upon finding a suitable Ph.D. advisor. The final choice of a dissertation topic is made jointly by the student and the advisor. See the brochures for faculty members on campus and the hospitals, for research topics and the website for graduate school departments.
To obtain a Ph.D., students must complete a doctoral dissertation, in addition to the other requirements listed in the School’s regulations for research students.
