The Biomedical Sciences Graduate Program (BSGP), in partnership with UNM’s Anderson School of Management (ASM), is offering the Professional Science and Technology Management Concentration (PSTM) for both the M.S. and Ph.D. in Biomedical Sciences programs. Our goal is to prepare students for jobs in industry, government, non-profits, etc., without compromising our commitment to the intensive laboratory training normally expected of every recipient of BSGP degrees. The employment landscape in all sciences, not just Biomedical Science, has undergone dramatic change in recent decades. No longer restricted to faculty positions in research universities, today’s graduate encounters abundant opportunities outside the conventional boundaries of academic science. The intellectual and experimental skills of traditional graduate training are still essential but it is now widely understood that management and business skills enhance a trainee’s preparation for the jobs of today, whether within or outside academia. Students may enroll in PSTM studies after successful completion of BSGP’s first year core curriculum.
For more information, or to enroll in PSTM, contact the School of Medicine - Research Education Office at SOMREO@salud.unm.edu.
Any outside student wishing to take Anderson courses will need to submit a Course Override Request here: https://forms.unm.edu/forms/course_override_form.
Following successful completion of the the BSGP core curriculum and remaining in Good Academic Standing (as defined by the BSGP), students may begin working toward the Management components of the Concentration.
