TAD Posted March 23, 2009 Report Share Posted March 23, 2009 Hey everyone, Has anyone heard /know of UWO's Masters in Clinical Anatomy + Cell Biology. It looks like a mega tough program... but incredibly interesting! Would it be pointless to apply if my primary goal is to up my science gpa for dents?

dbjones Posted March 26, 2009 Report Share Posted March 26, 2009 I have seen the program on the Western website. It does seem quite cool. However, I get the impression from the program that its meant for to train people who have a genuine interest to continue in anatomical sciences and teach it to undergrads, grads, and med students. ``This plan of study is designed to meet the ever increasing need in North America for instructors who can teach cadaveric gross anatomy. A Master's in Clinical Anatomy will provide students with the necessary skills to teach clinically-oriented cadaveric anatomy in medical, dental and professional health science programs.`` I don`t think it would be pointless if you are genuinely interested into the program.

daryn Posted March 26, 2009 Report Share Posted March 26, 2009 Only U of T cares if you have done a MSc (to be honest I don't know how they look at course based ones - they aim for ones with research focus). UWO barely looks at it. If your GPA isn't high enough, doing more undergrad coursework to boost your grades would be a safer bet. If you are genuinely interested in the MSc though, go for it. I don't know how much it will help your application, but it certainly can't be bad. And just think how easy gross anatomy will be to you -- once you are in. (but really, that's one course in first year) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
