- Students currently enrolled in optometry at The Ohio State University may simultaneously pursue an MS degree and earn both degrees within the normal period for the OD.
- MS / Advanced Practice Fellowship Programs:
- The MS degree may be pursued together with a two-year advanced clinical fellowship in one of four areas:
- Cornea and contact lenses
- Binocular vision and pediatrics
- Vision rehabilitation
- Family practice
- Note: Applicants to the Advanced Practice Fellowship programs must be graduate optometrists who are eligible for licensure to practice optometry in the state of Ohio. The goal is to provide clinician/educators with research skills in these four areas of emphasis.
