The Master of Science in Biomedical Sciences with a concentration in Clinical Research provides learners who have earned a terminal degree (e.g., Ph.D., M.D., Pharm.D., Sc.D.) with the didactic and experiential learning necessary to conduct extramurally-funded clinical and translational research. Its mission is to produce skilled clinical and translational researchers dedicated to sound scientific clinical research and scholarship, conducted in an ethical and culturally sensitive manner, who develop and implement novel therapeutic interventions contributing to the transformation of human health and health care within the State of New Mexico.

The multidisciplinary, competency-based program uses adult learning principles as its foundations and incorporates 14 domains of study, represented by the course list found in the "Graduate Certificate in Clinical and Translational Science" section of this page. The concentration is developed to ensure that all learners have the opportunity to develop competency in these domains.

Those accepted in the degree program prepare an individual Inventory Assessment: Needs Analysis and Self-Identification to identify knowledge, skills and abilities attributable to their prior education, training, and experience. Together with the degree Committee of Studies and their mentors, learners develop an Individual Program of Studies that prepares them to develop clinical and translational research skills sufficient to become independent investigators.

Concentration in Cancer Biology

The concentration in Cancer Biology provides trainees with focused and individualized training in cancer-relevant disciplines. There are over 50 graduate faculty members constituting the University of New Mexico Cancer Center, which is an NIH-funded P30 Center with emphases on basic research, clinical translation and community studies. These faculty are extramurally funded and internationally recognized leaders in their fields and their trainees represent the next generation of cancer researchers charged with making cutting edge technological advances in genomics, imaging, molecular and drug discovery. The complexity of such medical advances also requires culturally sensitive community outreach and integration to assure that the dissemination of these advances will be effective and accepted by patients, caregivers and health care providers. In recognition of the need for greater interdisciplinary and transdisciplinary graduate training, the Cancer Biology concentration addresses new, national graduate training guidelines that require students to articulate individualized training goals and plans for targeted career development. The flexible curriculum will enable students to choose from a menu of courses that offer training relevant to each of the four Cancer Center research programs: 1) Cancer Control and Disparities; 2) Cancer Genetics, Epigenetics and Genomics; 3) Translational Cancer Cell Biology and Signaling; and 4) Cancer Biotechnology, Drug Discovery and Targeted Delivery. The concentration is designed to offer required and elective courses as well as professional career development that is relevant to all four programs, yet with sufficient flexibility to enable trainees to focus on selected areas of interest. The reorganization of existing courses offered by different departments along with special topics short courses centered on breaking new areas into a single Cancer Biology concentration will both enhance recruitment of the best and the brightest graduate trainees and will in turn provide transdisciplinary, individualized training for students with an interest in cancer-focused research.

Concentration in Professional Science and Technology Management

The Professional Science and Technology Management concentration is offered in partnership with UNM’s Anderson School of Management. BSGP's goal is to prepare students for jobs in industry, government, non-profits, etc., without compromising commitment to the intensive laboratory training normally expected of every recipient of BSGP degrees. The employment landscape in all sciences, not just Biomedical Science, has undergone dramatic change in recent decades. No longer restricted to faculty positions in research universities, today’s graduate encounters abundant opportunities outside the conventional boundaries of academic science. The intellectual and experimental skills of traditional graduate training are still essential but it is now widely understood that management and business skills enhance a trainee’s preparation for the jobs of today, whether within or outside academia. Students may enroll in concentration studies after successful completion of BSGP’s first year core curriculum.

Graduate Certificate in Clinical and Translational Science

The certificate program in Clinical and Translational Science (CTS) is designed to meet the needs of a variety of learners who seek exposure to clinical and translational research competencies, but who are not interested in or ready for a Master's program. The CTS Certificate program, along with the M.S. in Biomedical Sciences with a concentration in Clinical Research, is an educational component of the UNM School of Medicine Biomedical Research Education Program and was founded as part of an initiative to integrate and expand the reach of biomedical research from the laboratory to clinical and medical practice: promoting a bench to bedside to community effort. Increasingly, pressing global health problems have led educators to accelerate the training of clinical, basic science, and translational researchers. Therefore, this program provides students the basic tools necessary to translate scientific discovery into actionable solutions.

Qualifications

The CTS Certificate program is open to students seeking a graduate degree in a basic science, public health, medical, clinical, engineering or social science discipline (M.D., Ph.D., Pharm.D., Sc.D., and M.P.H.). Individuals who have already completed graduate training in these areas and are receiving additional training at UNM (i.e. post-doctoral and clinical fellows), or are currently employed at UNM as junior faculty, are eligible to participate. Admission standards include competitive standardized tests scores (i.e. MCAT, GRE) and strong academic records. Additionally, preference is given to applicants who exhibit ability to effect multi-modal communication with fellow learners, colleagues, instructors and other members of the health care and research communities. Finally, the one-year program schedule is intensive, so regular attendance and in-class participation is required.

Admission Requirements

The program begins in July each year, please visit our website for application and admission information. Prospective students can access application materials from the Biomedical Research Education Program, or download the required forms from the Certificate Program in Clinical and Translational Science Web site. Application materials include a Personal Statement, Letters of Recommendation, and additional supporting information. Prospective students may also contact the BREP office at (505) 272-1887, or email somreo@salud.unm.edu.
