The philosophy of the Graduate Program in Anatomy is to provide students with ample opportunities: to explore a broad range of topics within anatomy to develop creative and critical thinking skills to acquire technical expertise in the latest anatomical technologies and to learn to become articulate communicators. In addition, opportunities are available for collaboration with scientists in other departments at Howard University and at other universities in the local area as well as with scientists at the National Institutes of Health (NIH), the National Naval Medical Center, the Smithsonian Institution, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), and the United States Department of Agriculture. Students in the program complete a series of core Anatomy courses and other requirements, and pursue research in the laboratory of one of the department's Graduate Faculty members. In keeping with the diverse nature of current approaches included within the realm of Anatomy, the Graduate Program of Anatomy transcends traditional departmental boundaries. The goal is to generate anatomists who will be competitive in the academic, industrial, and/or government job markets of the coming decades. The Graduate Program in Anatomy prepares students for careers in research and teaching in the anatomical and life sciences, with emphasis on an integrative understanding of biological systems at levels ranging from the molecular to the organismal. All degree programs are offered as full-time, in-person graduate programs at our Washington, D.C. Program also is available for students admitted to both the College of Medicine and the Graduate Program in Anatomy. The Graduate Program in Anatomy is housed in the College of Medicine and offers a Ph.D. Modern Research Opportunities at Howard University and Washington, DC Laboratories degree program and trains students of Medicine, Dentistry and undergraduates in the College of Pharmacy, Nursing and the Allied Health Sciences. Therefore, our aim is to excel in research and to deliver high quality education to our students. The Department currently admits students into the Ph.D. The Graduate Program in Anatomy is committed to making a significant contribution to science and education. The major focus of our research is in Molecular, Cellular & Developmental Biology, Neuroscience, Evolutionary & Organismal Biology. Our use of new experimental technology and modern scientific approaches allows us to make Howard University a leading research institution located in the nation’s capital. Members of our Graduate Program contribute to this excitement through cutting-edge research in a wide range of disciplines of the Anatomical Sciences. These are exciting times for researchers and students in the biomedical and life sciences.
