How the formal pathway works
Admission route
Applicants apply to the Vilcek Institute's open PhD programme each autumn rather than to a clinical department, and complete three laboratory rotations in the first year before choosing a mentor. A clinical surgeon's profile does not by itself mean they act as a PhD mentor.
Funding check
The admissions page lists the application components and a $125 application fee; confirm current stipend and tuition support with the Vilcek Institute.
- 1
Review the Vilcek Institute training areas and PhD training faculty for musculoskeletal-relevant mentors.
- 2
