Choose
a date
After receiving an invitation to interview an applicant
selects a date through the DukeMed Interactive Web Site
Personal Account System (PAS): http://www.dukemed.duke.edu/AccountLogin/.
As you click on various dates, the web client will indicate
which dates are available for MSTP interviews.
Faculty
interview preferences
One
of our goals is for you to meet Duke faculty whose research
is of interest to you. You will meet with Dr. Dona Chikaraishi,
interim director, and have interviews with two members of
the admissions committee and another meeting with one of
our MSTP students. In addition to these interviews, you
will talk with two other faculty members whose research
is of interest to you. You can help us in making these matches
by identifying four faculty members with whom you would
like to meet. Please list them in rank order, and we will
do our best to arrange interviews with two of them. Please
feel free to add any information not in your application
that might help us in matching your interests to those of
our faculty members. You can find information about faculty
members’ research interests on the web sites of Duke’s
various basic medical science programs, biosci.mc.duke.edu/,
www.bme.duke.edu/,
and on the participating
faculty page of this web site. Please send your
list of four preferred faculty interviewers to our office:
919-684-2412, MSTP@duke.edu.
Airline
reservations
We will send the contact information for our travel
agent, so that you can make your airline reservations directly.
The agent will charge
your reservation to our account.
The
airport is about a half-hour drive from our campus, but
roads can be congested during late afternoon and early evening:
the drive can stretch to as much as forty-five minutes at
the evening rush hour. Leaving time for airport security
you’ll want to arrive at the airport about an hour
and a half before your flight departure time, so you should
arrange for a return flight leaving sometime later than
6 pm. If there are no flights that reasonably fit this schedule,
let us know, and we can arrange accommodations for an additional
night.
Lodging
We will reserve a single room for you at the Millennium
Hotel (2800 Campus Walk Ave, Durham, NC 27705, 919-383-8575,
800-222-8888), located about a mile from our offices, with
the room billed directly to MSTP. If you have other plans
for staying in the area, please let us know so that we do
not reserve a room for you.
Your
schedule and further instructions
Once
we know your preferences for faculty with whom to interview,
we will arrange your MSTP interview schedule. At that time
we’ll send you an email message containing your schedule
details, maps, hotel confirmation number, a more detailed
description of plans for your visit, and directions to our
offices.
