Develop and integrate new knowledge to inform precision healthcare and health professional education.Plan and conduct research focusing on genomic aspects of health.With its highly collaborative research and translational focus, this program prepares scientists across disciplines to: Students will be matched with faculty to conduct dissertation research. A robust research laboratory is available for Clemson-based students. Students will take cognate courses in bioinformatics, statistics, education, public health sciences and other areas to develop the tools necessary to develop a program of research. Core courses are offered in a live synchronous online format and students may choose to locate in the Clemson area or remain at distance.

Core courses focus on genetics and genomics (human, molecular and healthcare), knowledge and theory, research, and ethics and policy. Our program offers graduate students the opportunity to be mentored by faculty from multiple disciplines.
