Doctor of Medicine and Doctor of Philosophy (09/26/21) Bulletin 2021-22 Doctor of Medicine and Doctor of Philosophy (09/26/21) Doctor of Medicine and Doctor of Philosophy Washington University offers a combined MD/PhD degree program that draws on the resources of the College of Arts & Sciences, the McKelvey School of Engineering, and the School of Medicine under the auspices of the Medical Scientist Training Program (MSTP). The purpose of the program is to train individuals in medicine and biomedical research to prepare them for careers as physician-scientists. The program was inaugurated in 1969, and it has since trained more physician- scientists than any program in the nation. More than 70% of the individuals who have completed this postgraduate training are now actively involved in research programs at leading institutions. The program consists of three parts: 1. An enhanced MSTP thread integrated with the Phase 1 medical curriculum; 2. At least three years of original research in a medically relevant field to satisfy the requirements for the PhD degree; and 3. Core clinical clerkships (Phase 2) and advanced clinical electives (Phase 3) Both the MD and PhD degrees are awarded upon the completion of the program. The MSTP curriculum (http://mstp.wustl.edu/ program/Pages/MSTP-Curriculum.aspx) is integrated to allow for the timely completion of training. Students typically complete training in seven or eight years. The program matriculates an average of 25 students per year, which is the equivalent of 25% of the entering School of Medicine class. All MSTP students receive financial support in the form of stipends (currently $32,500 per year), health coverage, disability and life insurance, and full tuition remission for both the MD and PhD phases of training.

  • MD/Phd PROGRAM HANDBOOK
    MD/PhD PROGRAM HANDBOOK SECTION I: ADMISSION Students apply to the MD/PhD program through the American Medical College Application Service (AMCAS). After the AMCAS application is received, students interested in the MD/PhD program will be invited to complete a secondary application that will include questions related to their background and interest in becoming a physician-scientist. Highly qualified applicants invited to interview for admission to the MD program will also be invited to interview for consideration for the MD/PhD program. Only those students offered admission to the MD program will be considered for admission to the MD/PhD program. Under exceptional circumstances, medical students at the Warren Alpert Medical School of Brown University may also apply for admission to the MD/PhD program after they have begun their medical studies. Interested students should contact the MD/PhD Program Director to explore the possibility of transitioning to the MD/PhD Program. However, admission to the program through this route is not guaranteed and depends upon review of the student’s credentials and the availability of a position in the program. SECTION II: PROGRAM OF STUDY The MD/PhD Program enables students to attain both MD and PhD degrees over approximately eight years. The expectation is that students will first complete years 1 and 2 of medical school then undertake graduate studies. Upon completion of all PhD requirements, students will return to complete years 3 and 4 of medical school. Students interested in alternate paths should discuss their plans with the MD/PhD Program Director as early as possible.
