Master in Anatomie, Zellbiologie und Physiologie

Indiana University School of Medicine offers Masters's degree programs in Anatomy, Cell Biology, and Physiology with three different learning tracks that prepare students for successful careers in research or education, or entry into professional clinical programs of study such as medicine, and occupational therapy, or physical therapy. These are independent degrees and are not required as a prerequisite for the Anatomy, Cell Biology, and Physiology doctoral degrees.

All tracks of the Master’s program in Anatomy, Cell Biology, and Physiology require a total of 30 credit hours for the degree, but the Research Track requires more time in research. Students in the Research Track are expected to begin their investigational work during the first semester. Research Track students are expected to complete a larger research project related to their focus and enter a Ph.D. program after earning their Master’s degree.

Indiana University (IU) School of Medicine is the largest medical school in the United States. Comprised of five basic science departments and 20 clinical departments, IU School of Medicine offers exceptional training for students wishing to pursue a medical degree. With the Class of 2020, the school implemented a new medical education curriculum that better reflects the modern U.S. health care environment and delivery models, readying students to practice medicine in a team-based, interdisciplinary setting.

IU School of Medicine physicians and scientists were awarded approximately $446 million in research grants and awards in the fiscal year 2021 to study the underlying causes of disease, the development of new therapeutics, and how to improve the delivery of care. Funding to IU School of Medicine specifically from the National Institutes of Health—the gold standard in medical research—totaled about $217 million in the federal fiscal year 2021. This marks the second year in a row the school has surpassed $200 million.
