Organization of Research in the
Schools of the Medical Center
|
Research is organized between the
Schools of the Medical Center in the Institute
for Biomedical Sciences (PhD Programs), which is concerned with
biomedical "bench" research. It is the organization responsible for the
PhD training programs offered by our basic science departments and interdisciplinary
research programs developed by our faculty. While the faculty are of the
School of Medicine and Health Sciences, the degrees are conferred by the
Columbian School of Arts and Sciences.
The purpose of this arrangement between the Schools of the Medical Center
is to provide the best integrated experience to all health professionals
who train at The George Washington University, while simultaneously remaining
cognizant of our responsibility to keep infrastructure costs to a minimum,
so that our research and graduate degrees carry as much value as possible.
