MS in Biomedical Sciences

Tufts faculty and medical students provide their advice

Meet this year's guest and student speakers

"As it was my first laboratory research experience, I couldn’t have been more pleased. I found a new love for neuroscience and epilepsy and gained invaluable mentors along the way."

"As someone who didn’t major in a science in college, these classes exposed me to so much I didn’t know. After taking them, I feel much more prepared to tackle them in dental school. Something else that stood out was the emphasis of collaboration."

"I am often asked what would look good on my resume? I think the best advice I have is to do what you love and let your passion lead the way."

"The best thing about Tufts is the community. The community at Tufts is an amazing blend of academic discussion, socialization, and cultural experience. Moreover, Tufts is constantly re-inventing itself and improving to meet students' needs."

"After completing my didactic year in MBS, I am proudest that I have been able to balance challenging graduate-level biomedical coursework with active involvement in my community."

"It renewed confidence in myself and my passion for medicine. My undergrad experience left me questioning if I was cut out for medicine—but the MBS program showed me that I could do it and do it well. It was completely life changing."

"It was clear that the program was designed to prepare students for the future rigors of an undergraduate dental program and place them in a position to succeed."
