The '''Harvard–MIT Program in Health Sciences and Technology''', or ('''HST''',) is one of the oldest and largest [[biomedical engineering]] and [[physician-scientist]] [[Medical Scientist Training Program|training programs]] in the [[United States]]. It was founded in 1970 and is the longest-standing collaboration between [[Harvard University]] and the [[Massachusetts Institute of Technology]] (MIT). Within the program, graduate and medical students are registered with both [[MIT]] and [[Harvard]] and may work with faculty and affiliated faculty members from both communities.<ref>{{cite web | title= About HST | url=http://hst.mit.edu/about | access-date=March 20, 2015 }}</ref> HST is a part of MIT's [[Institute for Medical Engineering and Science]] and forms the London Society at [[Harvard Medical School]].

Line 12 ⟶ 15:

HST also offers a certificate program for MIT doctoral students called Graduate Education in Medical Sciences (GEMS). The GEMS certificate program offers students an abbreviated and structured experience through coursework and clinical exposure that is based on that required in the HST PhD program.<ref>{{Cite web |url=https://hst.mit.edu/academics/gems |title=Graduate Education in Medical Sciences (GEMS) Certificate Program &#124; Harvard-MIT Health Sciences and Technology |access-date=2019-03-04 |archive-date=2019-05-05 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190505230616/https://hst.mit.edu/academics/gems |url-status=dead }}</ref>

While HST had previously offered a terminal [[master's degree]], this is now only awarded to students withdrawing from the PhD program.<ref>{{Cite web |url=https://hst.mit.edu/masters-thesis |title=HST Master&#039;'s Degree Thesis Guidelines &#124; Harvard-MIT Health Sciences and Technology |access-date=2019-03-04 |archive-date=2015-09-20 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150920041710/http://hst.mit.edu/masters-thesis |url-status=dead }}</ref>
