Studying biomedicine may be an ideal choice for a student seeking to pursue a job in a health-related field. Biomedicine includes the study of anatomy and physiology, and may lead to a career as a biologist, surgeon, physician or other medical professional.

Master-level studies involve specialized study in a field of research or an area of professional practice. Earning a master’s degree demonstrates a higher level of mastery of the subject.
Earning a master’s degree can take anywhere from a year to three or four years. Before you can graduate, you usually must write and defend a thesis, a long paper that is the culmination of your specialized research.
