![]() All applicants must first register for the Match with NMS before applying to participating genetic counseling graduate programs. The Match uses a process that takes into account both applicants’ and programs’ preferences. The MGH Institute is participating in the Genetic Counseling Admissions Match through National Matching Services (NMS). The Admissions Match has been established to enhance the process of placing applicants into positions in masters-level genetic counseling programs that are accredited by the Accreditation Council for Genetic Counseling (ACGC). Fieldwork opportunities exist within the MGH Center for Genomic Medicine, BWH Genomes2People (G2P) Research in Translational Genomics and Health Outcomes, and Mass General Brigham Personalized Medicine (which includes the Laboratory for Molecular Medicine and Translational Genomics Core). IHP is dedicated to training genetic counselors for the future of genetics and genomics. First and second year research, laboratory, industry, advocacy, and public health experiences are integrated into the curriculum and fieldwork training. In addition to prenatal, pediatric, adult, oncology, and various specialty clinical fieldwork placements at some of the top hospitals in the country, IHP knows the value of training for non-clinical roles and learning from genetic counselors who have both clinical and non-clinical responsibilities. These institutions are regularly ranked as the best hospitals in the country by U.S. Students each have a unique fieldwork plan that can be tailored to their interests.Ĭlinical placement opportunities for our students within Mass General Brigham include: Fieldwork experiences are one day per week the first and second semesters and build to longer placements during the summer and second year.
