Clinical Investigation: Mentored Field Experience (MS only)

Mentored Field Experiences are available in a wide variety of clinical research settings both regionally and nationally, permitting students to fulfill all the master’s degree requirements while studying at a distance. These placements not only provide opportunity for our students to integrate their theoretical understanding of research methods, statistics, ethics, and regulatory policy with the development of concrete clinical investigation skills and conduct, they also provide invaluable networking opportunities.

Many master’s graduates end up gainfully employed by the very organizations with whom they do their Mentored Field Experiences. These placements also provide lesser experienced students with the experience they need for entry into the clinical research field.
