Overview

Investing in Mentoring

There are three main components of the Physiological Science program of the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA):

Rigorous training as research scientists in laboratories of the Department of Integrative Biology and Physiology;

Coursework designed to deepen knowledge of the scientific method and analytical tools of research in physiology and biology and equip students with effective science communication skills;

Training as science educators, which includes course-based and practical teaching exercises.

Graduates of the M.S. Program in Physiological Science go on to pursue careers in research, medicine, and teaching.
