MAXIMUM FLEXIBILITY

The ABS Program offers flexible courses tailored to the needs of working adults. Three of the program's graduate degrees can be completed online (although the concentrations in Molecular Targets & Drug Discovery Technologies and Biodefense require onsite coursework). Students can also take courses onsite at our Montgomery County, MD campus or at our Baltimore, MD campus. Select courses are also offered at the Higher Education Conference Center (HECC) in Aberdeen, MD. Onsite courses are held in the evening and on Saturdays to accommodate the working professional.

LIFE AND CAREER-CHANGING OPPORTUNITIES

Many of our students are working in the biotechnology industry and are looking to advance their careers. Some are looking to fulfill academic requirements for pursuing medical school and degrees in public health. Others are looking to master the business of biotechnology as they consider a career transition from the lab. Still others have sharpened their acumen for intellectual property rights, patent law, and licensing as they plan to attend law school or join a start-up company.
