DESCRIPTION :
This area of concentration in the Anatomical Sciences is intended to provide the student the opportunity and facilities to study the topics of Gross Anatomy, Embryology, HIstology, and Neurological Anatomy in greater detail. This AoC requires five Type A electives in Anatomical Sciences and one Type B elective in Surgical Anatomy. The program can also lead to a M.S. degree awarded in conjunction with the M.D. degree. The M.S./M.D. degree requires 30 credit hours of graduate courses, some of which overlap with, and provide greater in-depth study and detail than the required electives of this AoC and the medical curriculum. To be applied to the M.S. degree, electives must be taken as graduate courses. For the AoC, courses can be taken as graduate course or as Pass/Fail Type A electives.
