Introduction

Clinical Investigation, PhD is a PhD program taught at Edinboro University of Pennsylvania, USA. The program is offered in campus-based modes with full-time options.

The Clinical Investigation PhD is a program for people who hold a postdoctoral fellowship or a junior faculty appointment within the Johns Hopkins Medical Institution. It is designed to train sub-specialty physicians for both clinical board eligibility in a medical discipline and a PhD. Students complete scientific grounding through full-time didactic instruction and then move into original thesis research.

Students take one year of full-time didactic instruction (minimum of 16 credits per term for 4 consecutive terms) after an initial training year in a medical or surgical subspecialty. Thesis research is jointly mentored by GTPCI faculty and a mentor from the fellow’s School of Medicine home division or department. The program includes required coursework totaling 90 credits, comprehensive and preliminary oral examinations, a thesis committee process, and a final oral examination with a public presentation and closed critical examination.
