Equity, Diversity, Inclusion and Decolonization
Graduate training for a Research Intensive M.Sc. involves some formal course work, in depth self-directed learning and extensive experience in the research laboratory. Students also participate in seminars discussing the current literature and presenting their own research. The Department considers teaching to be an important part of graduate education. Students in the Anatomy & Cell Biology program may be offered opportunities to supplement their stipends by serving as teaching assistants in such courses as gross anatomy, histology, neuroanatomy and cell biology.
The M.Sc. typically takes two years of full-time study to complete. Upon completion of the M.Sc., most students enter a program of further study at the Ph.D. level in this department or elsewhere, or enter a professional program such as medicine, dentistry, an allied health science or teaching. Previous graduates of this department hold prominent positions in academia, medicine and other health science professions, and in industry.
Our M.Sc. students play a valuable role in our department by actively contributing to our research community. Graduate Students have access to state-of-the-art facilities, affiliated hospitals and research institutes, valuable teaching opportunities and world-class researchers.
The goal of our Research Track Graduate Program is to provide comprehensive training in Cell Biology/Neurobiology Research in preparation for a future in research and academia, or non-academic career paths. Graduate work in Anatomy & Cell Biology provides students with important skills that are essential for the research environment and are also transferable to the work force. They include: technical expertise, teamwork, leadership, written and verbal communication, critical thinking, problem solving, presentation skills, time/project management, organization, teaching and independence.
Each graduate student has a Supervisory Committee consisting of the research supervisor, at least two other faculty members and a designated member of the Graduate Affairs Committee (ex officio). This committee meets with the student on a regular basis according to the following milestones:
The Research Proposal Form is required for the first meeting.
The function of the first Supervisory Committee meeting is to decide on the required course work and to define the research to be undertaken.
The Progress Report Form is required for the 2nd and subsequent meetings.
At each meeting, the committee advises the Student on such matters as the progress of research and the preparation of the M.Sc. thesis. A complete report from the Supervisory Committee is submitted to the Graduate Affairs Committee after each supervisory committee meeting.
The Final Report Form is required for the final meeting.
When the thesis is ready for submission, the Supervisory Committee recommends examiners to the Graduate Affairs Committee.
For information on the thesis writing and publication processes, please refer to the Thesis Guide .
Information regarding scholarships, thesis regulations and the graduate calendar may be found on the School of Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies website.
If your first language is NOT English you must include official proof of proficiency in English, Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL iBT) and obtain a score of at least 92 with no individual score below 20. TOEFL scores should be sent to the University of Western Ontario, School of Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies (Code 0984)
University regulations prohibit the acceptance of students who have not attained this standard. The Department requires that students from other countries provide documentary evidence of adequate financial support for the duration of their studies.
For qualified applicants, the usual period of study for the Research M.Sc. is two years (minimum one year), and for the Ph.D. from two to four years (minimum two years after an M.Sc. or 3 years after an honours degree). The Clinical Anatomy MSc program is 20 months.

About the programme
This programme combines the core modules from the MSc in Clinical Anatomy programme with our Advance HE-accredited MSc in Health Professions Education programme.
This programme offers you the opportunity to conduct whole-body dissection, and in doing so develop a deep understanding of the complex nature of the whole of the human body and how that relates to your clinical practice.
You will gain the unique experience of working with a range of cadaveric material preserved using Thiel, Formalin and plastination embalming techniques. In particular, dissection using Thiel-embalmed cadavers offers the benefit of viewing material which is as close to living tissue as possible.
You will have the opportunity to learn from experts at the forefront of new developments in clinical anatomy, who create a dynamic and supportive learning environment as part of a diverse and welcoming community. As well as learning from their expertise, you will be challenged to think differently and learn skills to become a self-directed learner as you continue to develop your anatomy knowledge throughout your career.
The MSc features guest seminars from visiting surgeons and consultants, who will bring patient cases to share with you, so you can apply your knowledge to a clinical setting. These experts come from a range of specialities and include plastic, cardiothoracic and orthopaedic surgeons, gastroenterologists, radiologists and emergency medicine doctors.
This programme also provides a comprehensive professional education that focuses on developing teachers and researchers of anatomy. You can choose from a range of education electives, where you will study alongside students on the MSc in Health Professions Education programme . You will have the opportunity to conduct a high-quality educational research project, supported by experts in medical education.
By undertaking the MSc in Clinical Anatomy and Education, you will have the ability to put your educational training into practice with the opportunity to teach anatomy on our undergraduate Medicine programme. This experience will prepare you to teach anatomy in a medical environment, whether or not you come from a clinical background. Moreover, you will leave the programme with enough teaching experience to successfully become an Associate Fellow of the Higher Education Academy and gain the right to use the post-nominal letters AFHEA.
*This programme is primarily based at the University of Hull. Some modules involve at least one study day delivered on the University of York campus, see the module information below for details.
Dr Paul McKeegan, Interim Programme Director
This programme offers a range of 20 credit modules, and one research project/dissertation (60 credits).
Students' choice of modules must include 40 credits of clinical anatomy dissection modules, 40 credits of education modules and 60 credits from the research project / dissertation module.
All modules are subject to availability and this list may change at any time.

Our community.
The Division of Anatomy at The Ohio State University offers graduate studies in anatomy leading to both MS and PhD degrees.
A minimum of 30 graduate credit hours are required to earn a Master's degree in Anatomy. There are two master's degree plans: thesis and non-thesis . Students may pursue either plan, subject to the rules of the Graduate Studies Committee. Students may wait until the completion of the first year of study to decide if they will pursue the thesis or non-thesis master's program. Students enrolled in both professional school and graduate school must pursue the thesis plan.
The MS in Anatomy would be appropriate for students who want a graduate degree in anatomy to fulfill a professional need, e.g., physical or occupational therapists, etc. The MS may also be helpful to those students who are undecided about a career in the health professions and want to improve their background knowledge in order to make a more informed decision.

The Doctor of Philosophy degree program in anatomy gives students the opportunity to achieve a high level of scholarly competence and to develop the capacity to contribute to knowledge in the anatomical sciences. A minimum of 80 graduate credit hours beyond the baccalaureate degree (or 50 graduate credit hours beyond the master’s degree) is required to earn a doctoral degree in Anatomy. During the course of study, the student has the option to specialize in one or more of the subdisciplines of anatomy. The option is always available to engage in subspecialties outside the department, subject to approval by the Graduate Studies Committee. The PhD prepares the student for a career in academics, governmental or industrial research, science education, and service in planning and regulatory agencies.
Biomedical Research Program
The overall objective of the Division of Anatomy Biomedical Research Program is to provide an educational background for students wishing to become an NIH-funded principal investigator that includes a fundamental understanding of the four major subdisciplines in Anatomy (Gross, Neuro, Histo, & Embryo) in conjunction with a strong background in Molecular and Cellular Biology. This type of integrated program will provide students with the knowledge necessary to understand the anatomic basis of the cellular and molecular mechanisms underlying normal and abnormal development of all the major organ systems. The Division of Anatomy Biomedical Research Program consists of two distinct tracks, Biomedical Sciences and Molecular, Cellular & Developmental Biology. Students should discuss with their assigned advisor which track is appropriate for their specific career goals.
PhD Educational Research Track
The educational track for PhD students in the Division of Anatomy prepares students for the rigor of a career in academia with a focus on scholarly work in the area of educational research (e.g., development and evaluation of instructional tools and/or teaching methods). Students will complete not only courses in the four anatomical subdisciplines (i.e., gross anatomy, histology, embryology, and neuroanatomy), but also in areas such as learning theory, educational research methods, and applied statistics. The goal of this track is to produce graduates that are experienced anatomical educators and are prepared to successfully develop, execute, and publish high-impact research in the area of educational research.
Apply to the Doctor of Philosophy in Anatomy
To apply for the anatomy graduate programs, you need to complete an online application and a brief (1-2 pages) personal statement describing your academic achievements as well as personal and professional goals. All applicants must submit their application to The Ohio State University Graduate School through the Graduate Admissions Office. You need to include an official transcript from each college or university attended, GRE scores (scores from an equivalent national exam may be substituted) and three letters of recommendation.
Successful applicants to the anatomy graduate program typically meet the following criteria:
Applications for fall admission are accepted beginning in mid-to-late August the previous year and should be completed by the following March 15. After receiving the completed application, the Graduate Admissions Office will forward the material to the anatomy GSC. A personal interview with the anatomy GSC may be requested to clarify the applicant's potential for graduate study in anatomy. The GSC will review the applications and decide if any students require an interview. Interviews and typically conducted in late March and early April with notifications soon to follow.
Upon receiving formal notification of acceptance to the anatomy program, the student is requested to inform the Division of Anatomy as to whether or not they accept a place in the program.

Caroline Bark, MSc student from the “Sociotechnical Systems Engineering” program at Uppsala University, has completed her MSc thesis in collaboration with SLU-led projects Restore4More and Drylands Transform
This spring, I completed my master's thesis for the “Sociotechnical Systems Engineering” engineering program at Uppsala University in collaboration with Drylands Transform and Restore4More projects. I discovered Restore4More and Drylands Transform through the SLU website and was captivated by the complex and interdisciplinary problem of land degradation, which was new to me. This issue requires a combination of data collection and analysis and social solutions to be effectively addressed. During my studies, I developed an interest in GIS and remote sensing, and I wanted to use my thesis to deepen my knowledge in these areas. Therefore, I conducted my thesis in collaboration with the Spatial Data Science and Applied Learning Lab (SPACIAL) at ICRAF Headquarters in Nairobi, Kenya. After meeting with the team at SPACIAL, we decided that my thesis would focus on assessing whether the restoration work conducted under the Drylands Transform project in the Chepareria Livestock Café (West Pokot, Kenya) has had a positive impact on land health, as no data analysis had been conducted since the project's start in 2021. To address this, I studied three key indicators of land health: soil organic carbon, vegetation cover, and the prevalence of severe erosion.
The first month of my thesis was spent in Uppsala conducting the literature review, which gave me valuable knowledge about the potential of restoration to improve society and the climate. I learned about the causes and consequences of land degradation and realized that this issue is particularly severe in drylands, which are heavily impacted by climate change and poverty (IPCC, 2019). It also became clear that mapping land degradation patterns could facilitate effective land restoration ( Winowiecki et al., 2018) . The lack of rangeland health monitoring remains a significant bottleneck for evidence-based restoration work, especially in rangelands (Vågen et al., 2016). While the effects of restoration interventions can be partially observed visually in the Livestock Cafés , data and analysis are necessary to provide concrete evidence of changes and to measure them with greater accuracy.
A month into my thesis, I traveled to Nairobi and spent the next two and a half months at ICRAF's SPACIAL unit. There, I learned a lot about remote sensing from my colleagues, which was relatively new to me. This gave me valuable insights related to my work and a broader understanding of the issue than I could have ever gotten from home. Many people visited the office to learn about SPACIAL's work, and I met individuals from various countries working on restoration's social and technical aspects. Additionally, I learned about the diverse activities ICRAF is involved in and attended seminars on topics ranging from monkey behavior to the functions of different grass species, further deepening my interest in dedicating myself to this field in the future.
At ICRAF, I carried out all my data analysis, which revealed that the restoration work has positively impacted soil organic carbon, reduced erosion, and increased vegetation cover since its implementation in 2021. I was surprised by the significant results, especially considering the project's relatively short duration.
I hope my work will also be applied in a broader context, studying the remaining Livestock Cafés over a longer period as the project progresses.
My time in Kenya ended with the Restore4More workshop, during which Restore4More was launched. I had the opportunity to meet representatives from all the partner organizations, who shared many exciting perspectives during discussions and presentations of their work. I also presented my work to the participants and received valuable feedback, which I incorporated into my thesis.

The workshop ended with a visit to the Livestock Cafés in Chepareria. It was fascinating to see the area in person, and even though I had observed a clear improvement in the data, I was still surprised to see the stark difference between the inside and outside areas when we arrived.

On the final day, we held a seminar with the local community, where we heard from those directly affected by the project. These insights were invaluable for writing my thesis. I also presented my results to the caretaker, who was delighted to see that her work had yielded such clear results quickly.
