Are students funded throughout their MSP studies?
The MSP track record is that all MD/PhD students who are in good academic standing and are progressing toward completing both degrees have received support. In general students are supported by their graduate program during the four to five years they spend primarily in graduate work. This support is in the form of a teaching assistantship, research assistantship, or fellowship. During the years they spend primarily pursuing medical studies, students are generally supported in the form of a teaching assistantship or fellowship. There is no commitment to fund MD/JD or MD/MBA students although most do find some support during their medical school training.
