After matriculation, the Program Director will meet individually with each student to develop a shadowing plan. The Capstone Class MMS 690 requires 100 hours of graduate-level shadowing during the MMSc program. In addition, each student’s prior experience and career interests will be used as the foundation for their individualized plan with a focus on additional shadowing or other experiences that will give them the strongest credentials for medical or other professional schools. Reflection on shadowing serves as the core of the Capstone experience.
- Note: Obtaining an interview is not a guarantee of admission.
The MMSc program has a Program Specific Tuition Rate as described at the One Stop registrar’s page. The rate is a flat rate independent of your state of residency.
The tuition rate per credit hour is inclusive, there are no additional fees beyond the stated per credit hour rate. Students may buy health insurance through Miami if they do not have other coverage, and would be charged the graduate student rate for that health insurance.
