MS in Biomedical Sciences

Increase your understanding of infectious and non-infectious diseases by learning from experts at UAlbany’s School of Public Health and the Wadsworth Center, the public health laboratory of New York State. Mentorship lies at the heart of the master’s in biomedical sciences program.

This enables you to immediately connect with prominent scientists, develop lab skills, and work on biomedical research projects that directly impact public health. In addition to courses, you can take graduate workshops in advanced light microscopy and image analysis, bioinformatic analysis of large next-generation sequencing datasets, and RNA interference and genome editing technologies.

At the School of Public Health, you’ll be a part of our efforts to build healthier communities by engaging in hands-on courses, cutting-edge research, and practice-based experience enhanced by our unique 35-year partnership with the New York State Department of Health.

We provide defining experiences in public health – experiences that enable you to examine issues, explore possibilities, and create the change needed for a better tomorrow.
