:: M.S. Program in Biomedical Sciences
The M.S. Program in Biomedical Sciences is oriented primarily toward graduates of dental programs and students enrolled in a specialty clinical program at Baylor College of Dentistry. This program is also well suited for dental specialists from countries other than the United States who desire to obtain or improve their background in dental research. Present dental students at Baylor College of Dentistry and non-dental students with a baccalaureate degree in the biological sciences are also eligible to apply for the M.S. Program in Biomedical Sciences. For present dental students and for students with a D.D.S. degree or equivalent, whether or not they are enrolled concomitantly in a clinical specialty program, the primary objectives of the M.S. program are:
An additional benefit of the M.S. in Biomedical Sciences is that predoctoral students and students in the dental specialty programs at Baylor College of Dentistry will become more competitive for admission to training programs in the dental clinical specialties and Ph.D. programs. For students with a B.A./B. S. degree only, the primary objective of the M.S. program is to provide training in basic biomedical sciences and modern research methods. This training will enhance opportunities for careers as educators in secondary schools and junior colleges and as technicians and research associates in modern biological laboratories. The Masters in Biomedical Sciences is also appropriate for students who wish to pursue research and enhance their educational experience in further preparation for admission to dental and medical schools, and advanced graduate (Ph.D.) programs. The M.S. Program in Biomedical Sciences offers concentrations in the following fields of study central to the oral health sciences:
