Caltech-KPSOM MD/PhD Program

There is a dual-degree program between Caltech and the Kaiser Permanente Bernard J. Tyson School of Medicine (KPSOM) for the granting of the MD/PhD degree. Students receive their medical training at KPSOM, and perform their PhD work with any member of the Caltech faculty.

Admission to this dual-degree program is made through the KPSOM MD/PhD process. The MD degree is awarded by KPSOM, and the PhD is awarded by Caltech.

The dual-degree program is overseen by Dr. Jose M. Barral, MD, PhD at KPSOM and Professor Paul Sternberg at Caltech
