The department offers three disciplines of study: Human Morphology, Physiology, and
Neuroscience. Each discipline provides courses for medical, graduate, nursing, nutrition,
paramedical, and undergraduate students.
The graduate program is comprehensive, leading to a master’s degree (MS) or doctoral
degree (PhD) in Biomedical Sciences with a focus on the aforementioned disciplines.
Students with a BS degree or its equivalent in mathematics, biology, physics, or chemistry,
along with advanced courses in physiology and other medical science disciplines, are
eligible to apply. The department may require specific prerequisites in certain disciplines,
such as biology and chemistry, as deemed necessary
