The following requirements are in addition to, or further elaborate upon, those requirements outlined in the Student Services section of this Web site.
Coursework Requirements
Eight units of classroom courses and two units comprising a mentored clinical research project are required. Because courses are offered during all four quarters of the year, including summer, the degree can be accomplished over the course of two years. Students are expected to take one classroom course per quarter and be engaged in a mentored research project by the second quarter of classes.
