Clinical Trials Research Track
Our Clinical Trials Track trains you to harness a methodological understanding of study design. It also fosters the analytical acumen you need to develop novel and interventional human studies with therapeutic intent, or to further delineate the pathophysiology of disease. Following is a complete listing of your requirements for the first and second year of the Clinical Trials Track of the PhD in Clinical Research Program.
