Dual-degree programs combine the MD program with special interests.
Keck offers four interdisciplinary degree programs that cut across traditional academic disciplines.
Combined Degree Programs
MD/MPH
The five year MD/MPH program is designed for individuals who wish to acquire not only medical practice competencies, but also an understanding of the history, organization, goals and philosophy of public health.
MD/PhD
The joint MD/PhD seven-to-nine year program of the University of Southern California and Caltech is designed for individuals who aspire to become a physician-scientist, have a career in academic medicine or a leadership role in the biomedical industry.
MD/MBA
In response to the ongoing reorganization of health care delivery systems, and the growing awareness of the impact of business decisions on health care, the Keck School of Medicine and the Marshall School of Business jointly offer an innovative program for individuals seeking knowledge in both medicine and business administration.
