How long has Sarah Lawrence’s program been in existence?
Founded in 1969, Sarah Lawrence’s Human Genetics program was the nation’s first. It remains the largest of its kind and continues to be at the forefront of genetic counseling. Our program has generated more than half the country’s genetic counselors; about half the directors of all other genetic counseling master’s degree programs; and many of the presidents of the National Society of Genetic Counselors; as well as many innovators in the field.
