The MSTP is a dual M.D.-Ph.D. degree program which makes it possible for a small number of outstanding students to earn their doctor of medicine and doctor of philosophy degrees concurrently, typically in 7-8 years. The MSTP is designed primarily for students who are interested in a future career in academic medicine with a focus in basic research related to medicine. The Michigan MSTP is offered cooperatively by the Medical School and the Horace H. Rackham School of Graduate Studies.
