Master of Science in Nanomedicine (STEM)

Program Overview

Northeastern University's Master of Science in Nanomedicine is an interdisciplinary, industry-aligned professional degree that provides experience-based learning in nanomedicine research, innovation, and commercialization. The program is designed for scientists, engineers, and clinicians working in or seeking nanomedicine-related careers.

The MS in Nanomedicine provides students with a broad understanding of challenges and opportunities in healthcare; hands-on training in nanomedicine materials, methods, and translation strategies; and year-round professional development opportunities that culminate in a full-time co-op experience. Students can specialize their curriculum by selecting a concentration in nanoformulation research; translation and commercialization; or vaccine development.

The degree offers a competitive advantage to those seeking high-demand research and entrepreneurship roles in the biotechnology, pharmaceutical, biomedical, and healthcare industries - and students gain a one-of-a-kind opportunity to train for competitive jobs. Through a combination of coursework and real-world projects, our students learn to:

  • Identify core challenges and opportunities for improving healthcare through nanomedicine.
  • Explain fundamental concepts of nanomedicine design, synthesis, and characterization.
  • Summarize and interpret considerations for nanomedicine validation and regulatory approval.
  • Identify, evaluate, and communicate seminal and emerging findings in nanomedicine.
  • Function effectively on a team to establish goals, plan tasks, and meet objectives.
  • Analyze and interpret results from experiments and scientific literature.
  • Apply knowledge, techniques, tools, and skills to support nanomedicine research, development, and commercialization.
  • Integrate classroom experience with authentic practical experience.

The MS in Nanomedicine is a two-year professional master’s program that can be completed either online or on the Boston campus. International students seeking a U.S.-based co-op are recommended to apply for the full-time Boston program to satisfy U.S. visa requirements.
