Target Audience

The GW PhD in Translational Health Sciences team-based learning format utilizes a cohort structure to enhance students' knowledge of translational health sciences. Studies in higher education have shown the benefits of engaging in a cohort learning community. Cohort programs are more likely to be student centered, build strong group bonds, and enhance professional networks.
