One Year Master's Program
Started by Class2013
Does anybody know of a one year master's program in science or healthcare? Thank you.
I believe 2 years is the least duration of time it takes to complete the required amount of credits for a post-bacc, at least to my best understanding.
If it were one year then most undergrads would be eager to jump on.

I believe there is a public health (1 yr) one at USF in Tampa. I heard it's mostly or all online. I might be wrong, but you should google that.

Bad info 🙄
Search around here there is a whole subforum dedicated to it

I am currently doing a one year MS of cell and molecular bio at Tulane
Hey Jake,
I am interested in the one at Tolune also, do you mind if I PM for some questions?

University of Florida has an M.S. program in Human Nutrition that you can finish within one year (August to August) if you load up on a lot of classes per semester and choose the non-thesis option. Thats what I did last year.
Barry University also has an M.S. program, as phungy mentioned, in biomedical sciences. If you get into the option-1 program, you start in August and finish in July. Again, this is a non-thesis master's program. And this is what I'm doing this year.

Many master's degrees at British universities only take one year. It often works out to be cheaper, tuition-wise, though the exchange rate would hurt. This would also be a great experience!
They like foreign (non-EU) students because they pay higher tuition rates, compared to British and EU students.
Here's an example: http://www.rhul.ac.uk/Biological-Sciences/Research/MSc/index.html
Cost (tuition only): 12,785 pounds = ~$18,331 USD

UF no longer offers this non-thesis MS in Nutrition - I believe now you can only get your Ph.D. in this department.
It's too bad they closed the program - as all but 1 predent in this program got into dental school (a few of the predents got into UFCD). During the short duration that the program was open, 20 out of 22 prehealth students got into health professional schools. Of the two that didn't make it - one went on to another MS program, and the other got a really good job.
very interesting, have you finished the program? Or do you know if anyone are doing the program? How was/is it?Many master's degrees at British universities only take one year.

It would probably be best to do your 1-yr masters in the states and not abroad. Schools will be familiar with the curriculum and will have actually heard of the program. BU, Tulane, Midwestern, UMDNJ, Tufts are the schools that I can remember that accept pre-dental students. Check out the postbac forum for more information.
