Overview

As a physician, you have the power to lead your patients’ healthcare by diagnosing and treating their injuries or illnesses.

In this Medical and Molecular Biology - Medicine Pathway from Massachusetts College of Pharmacy and Health Sciences, academically motivated international students have the opportunity to earn a combined Bachelor of Science from MCPHS and a Doctor of Medicine (MD) from St. George’s University (SGU) School of Medicine. At MCPHS, you’ll receive a challenging baccalaureate curriculum that prepares you for professional study.

You’ll spend the next two years of medical study at SGU, and the final two years in clinical rotations at affiliated hospitals in the United States and/or the United Kingdom, preparing you to become a medical doctor. With this joint program, 3rd-year students in the Pre-Medical and Health studies major, or the Medical and Molecular Biology major, as well as all graduates of MCPHS, can be admitted to medical school.

If you are interested in Veterinary Medicine, please contact us for information on our BS/DVM collaboration agreement with St. George’s University School of Veterinary Medicine.
