"*" indicates required fields
The MSMS is designed to improve academic portfolios by building a wealth of health sciences knowledge and identifying pathways to their dream healthcare careers. The classes in the one-year MSMS parallel the curriculum of the first year of LCME-accredited medical schools, so students can be prepared.
With predictive student analytics integrated into our curriculum and course delivery, the MSMS gives students insights into how they will perform in medical school — including their predicted USMLE Step 1 Board score.
Our St. Louis Master of Science in Medical Sciences is now offered completely online. Students with a bachelor’s in life sciences now have the opportunity to advance their careers with a world-class healthcare education from anywhere in the world — not just in St. Louis.
Online students take the same first-year of medical school curriculum, but the courses are spread over five terms for a part-time course load. No MCAT is required to apply!
There’s a reason graduates of the MSMS perform better on USMLE Step 1 than their peers: They’ve already learned the core curriculum and taken classes right alongside MD students in the very same classrooms!
The St. Louis Masters in Medical Science drives students to achieve their goals with monthly analytics reports that include a detailed breakdown of how students are performing in each USMLE System and Discipline across their classes. If you’re pursuing your MD, the MSMS analytics give you the confidence to know you’ll succeed when you apply to medical school.
With classes including anatomy, health disparities, and cell biology, our students are equipped to advance to other professional health pathways. In addition to 68 percent of students that advance to MD programs, MSMS graduates have moved on to pharmacy, dental, optometry, podiatry, and other professional health schools across the country.

Student responses to in-class quizzes, homework, and exams are tracked to give detailed insight into their performance.
Online-based lectures means class time is spent in small group discussions to improve comprehension, communication, and critical thinking.
Shortly after starting the MSMS, our student analytics model can predict USMLE Step 1 Board scores based on previously collected student data.
Detailed student performance analytics identify topical strengths to pinpoint what career or specialty is best for them.
Combining a dynamic classroom, machine-learning student analytics, and an accredited curriculum that mirrors the first year of medical school, our program helps health sciences students take the next step toward their goals.

Welcome to the St. Louis Master of Science in Medical Sciences program, a powerful health sciences program that parallels the first year of medical school in curriculum and intensity. If you’re passionate about becoming a physician or working in healthcare, PHSU St. Louis is the place for you.
Every year, about 30,000 students are rejected from medical schools in America, but many of those students haven’t been given the tools to help them reach their goals. Often, these same students are from backgrounds that are historically-underrepresented in medical school.
We see the potential in every student to reach their goals in healthcare and go on to serve their communities with culturally-competent care.
Our one-of-a-kind student analytics and dynamic classroom model play a major role, allowing us to monitor student performance and progress in real-time. By collecting student responses, we generate insights into how students will perform on USMLE Board exams and help align their future career in healthcare with topical strengths.
At PHSU St. Louis, in just one short year, we can help you get where you want to go in healthcare. We look forward to seeing you in our classrooms.
