A Message from the Dean
Well done! You have made two extremely sensible decisions pertaining
to the future of your life. The first is the decision to attend graduate
school. Graduate study provides you the opportunity to expand your
knowledge, helps provide entry into Ph.D. programs, and should make you
more employable, in the event you decide to enter the job market after
graduation. It increases your confidence and wherewithal to find
solutions, which, in turn, tends to further bolster your self-esteem and
confidence.
The second decision, as significant to that of entering graduate
school, is choosing the Palmer Division of Graduate Studies. Whether you
pursue your Master’s Degree in the Anatomy Program, with opportunities to
develop an advanced understanding of Anatomy, Biomechanics, and
Neuroscience, or in the Clinical Research Program with opportunities to
develop your capacity for research in human health, you have made a
positive investment in yourself that will pay dividends for the rest of
your life.
In either the Anatomy or the Clinical Research degree programs, you
will find a rewarding curriculum taught by outstanding veteran faculty
members. Your specific curriculum will be comprehensive, providing a
foundation for everything else you do. It will emphasize the current
literature in the field, and the most contemporary research techniques of
research design, methodology and analysis. It is a Palmer goal to
appropriately challenge you while you correspondingly develop
responsibility toward your professional development.
We are confident that we will be helping you to become as proficient
of a Master’s student as possible in the short time you will be with us.
Working with closely with your graduate faculty, you will be able to
clearly define research problems and see ways to approach their
resolution – skills necessary regardless of station in life.
The genesis begins now. We’re looking forward to welcoming you in
person!
