MUSC recognized for graduate education in US News & World Report

MUSC receives more accolades from U.S. News & World Report; this time as one of America’s Best Graduate Schools for its drug and alcohol program. This is the sixth consecutive year that MUSC has been recognized by U.S. News & World Report for its drug and alcohol abuse academic offerings.
 
“We are once again proud that MUSC was ranked as one of the top Universities for Graduate Education in Alcohol and Substance Abuse,” said Raymond Anton, M.D., Distinguished University Professor and director of the Center for Drug and Alcohol Programs. “The Center for Drug and Alcohol Programs (CDAP), along with the Clinical Neuroscience Division (both in the Department of Psychiatry), and the Neuroscience Department, all contribute to an outstanding learning environment for researchers and clinicians in this area. This top ranking is even more significant given that very few ‘state supported medical schools’ are ranked highly in this survey. This is a tribute to the foresight and support given to the Alcohol and Substance area by the leaders of MUSC.”
 
CDAP provides both clinical and basic laboratory research opportunities to its graduate students. For more information on CDAP and its nationally ranked academic program, visit http://www.cdap.musc.edu.
