Northwestern University Reviews of Master's in Biomedical Sciences

"Attending Northwestern is unfortunately the largest regret of my life. It requires you to pay copious amounts of money for average instruction and terrible services and opportunities. The way that my program handled COVID was horrible. They basically used the pandemic as an excuse to provide us for what we paid for. I would go days to weeks without hearing from a professor over email or Canvas, with no way to contact them in person. I believe that I got a better experience and education, both in person and online, through a state school undergraduate experience. Use your money elsewhere."

"Excellent school and program. The opportunities for expansion and collaboration are vast."

"Very god research training. Classes aren't always the most helpful but you learn a lot."

"Pros: Access to cutting edge research, ability to choose from over 150 faculty for thesis work. Cons: Course work, lack of lab based skills taught in courses, expensive area to live in"

"Overall, a great school with caring, intelligent, and accessible faculty members. They have truly challenged my thinking, and I feel like I can ask any questions I need to. Valuable program in a fun city to live in!"

"The MSEB program is relatively new, so some kinks still need to be worked out. The coursework is highly focused on research skills. Most of the professor were skilled and effective."
