This program allows students to continue working while immediately preparing for their next career move. 

Education from a Well-Respected Institution at the Front-Lines of Biomedical Research

Michigan State University’s Department of Pharmacology & Toxicology is highly rated in part because students receive unique access to faculty from the Colleges of Veterinary, Human, and Osteopathic Medicine.

Students in the Integrative Pharmacology program receive instruction from faculty who are top researchers and experienced instructors.

They often attend classes alongside PhD students, medical students, DVMs, and other post-graduates seeking advanced knowledge in biomedical research topics.

Background

Although the online master’s program in Integrative Pharmacology program is especially suited to those with some level of professional experience in laboratory research, all biology and chemistry graduates will benefit from this enriching course of study.
