There is a growing need for clinical researchers who are able to translate clinical knowledge into practice to deliver high quality care. The National Institutes of Health (NIH) has recognized this need and is increasing funding for clinical research. Job opportunities for clinical investigators are expected to increase rapidly in the future as demand for clinically trained health professionals who are familiar with the research skills required to lead multi-disciplinary research teams grows.

UIC’s Clinical Research Methods (CRM) online certificate program is taught by experienced faculty and is designed to provide easily accessible training in research skills to these clinicians. The Online Certificate in Clinical Research Methods at the University of Illinois at Chicago provides clinicians with essential research skills and is taught by experienced and well-funded faculty.
