Anatomy

Your graduate study in anatomy will include the essentials of human anatomy, including gross anatomy, developmental anatomy (embryology), microanatomy (cell biology/histology), and neurobiology. The master of science program is for you if you plan to continue on to doctoral studies (Ph.D., M.D., or the equivalent). Your M.S. may include a teacher education concentration, and can be earned through a thesis option or course option. Or, if you are already employed in allied health disciplines, pursue a graduate certificate.
