The Chicago School today announced a new Master of Science (M.S.) Biomedical Sciences program<\/a> in the College of Graduate and Professional Studies<\/a> beginning Fall 2025. The online program is designed to give students a strong academic background in biomedical sciences and prepare them for medical school or other careers in medical research and health-related fields.<\/p>\n

The program’s curriculum will equip students with a blend of the scientific, analytical, and professional skills needed in modern healthcare, biotech, and public health roles. Intended to prepare students for success in medical school and other advanced healthcare degree programs, the curriculum will offer rigorous biomedical courses designed to strengthen competencies in anatomy, physiology and research.<\/p>\n

The M.S. Biomedical Sciences program demonstrates The Chicago School’s continued focus on elevating the connection between mental and physical health. Last year, The Chicago School announced the launch of the Illinois College of Osteopathic Medicine (IllinoisCOM)<\/a>, a unique osteopathic college of medicine focusing on mental health-informed care.<\/p>\n

“This program embodies our commitment to innovation, accessibility, and community,” said Michele Nealon, Psy.D., president of The Chicago School. “We are proud to offer a program that will expand the number of students prepared to pursue a medical or research career in the midst of a severe shortage of physicians in the U.S. This program will not only prepare students for medical school but also position them to make meaningful contributions to healthcare and medical research.”<\/p>\n

The M.S. Biomedical Sciences program plans to be available in both full- and part-time formats, allowing students to complete the program in six or 10 terms, respectively. The in-depth academic experience will prepare students for a variety of career paths, including DO or MD medical school, medical research, and careers in the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries.<\/p>\n

“Many aspiring medical professionals face barriers to entry, whether due to gaps in their academic background or challenges balancing education with other responsibilities. By supporting initiatives like this, we help our institutions create multiple pathways for more students to pursue meaningful careers in healthcare,” said Michael Horowitz, Ph.D., chancellor of The Community Solution Education System<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/section>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
