Description:
The M.D./Ph.D. Program of the University of Pittsburgh and Carnegie Mellon
University was established in 1983 to offer exceptionally talented
individuals the opportunity to undertake a physician-scientist training
program tailored to their specific research interests. Through this program,
students who have a clearly defined interest in specialized medical research
can combine the curriculum of the University of Pittsburgh School of
Medicine with any number of graduate programs in basic sciences or
engineering at either the University of Pittsburgh or Carnegie Mellon
University. Over a period of six or seven years, these individuals meet the
degree requirements of both a graduate school and the medical school. The
two Universities are adjacent to one another in the Oakland neighborhood of
Pittsburgh.
