Clinical and Experimental Therapeutics (MS)

A Master of Science in Clinical Experimental and Therapeutics (28 units) will be granted on the basis of completion of at least 24 units of formal course work, in addition to 4 units earned by either completing and successfully presenting a thesis (CXPT 594a and CXPT 594b, both 2-unit courses based on the results of an original investigation), or by completing a non-thesis option. Students must choose one of these options by the end of the first year of study.

Three courses (11 units) are required: CXPT 609, CXPT 664 and PM 510L. The remaining units will be taken from courses offered within the School of Pharmacy or in various related disciplines outside the department, if approved by the Clinical Experimental Therapeutics Program Director.

All 28 units must be at the 400 level or above, with a maximum of 8 units of 400-level courses applied toward the degree.
