Student Perspectives
Students in the Master of Medical Sciences in Therapeutic Sciences program tend to share a particular mindset: they are people who want to understand how things work at the molecular level and are motivated by the slow, exacting work that turns that understanding into potential therapies. Many arrive with lab experience and a clear sense of where they want to grow, whether that’s deepening their experimental independence, sharpening their approach to problem-solving, or learning how early discovery science functions within larger research teams. The perspectives below highlight how students navigate the challenges of early drug discovery and development, and how they are shaping their identities as scientists poised to contribute meaningfully across academia, biotech, and industry.
