The study of dermatology prepares for students for work as dermatologists by teaching them how to treat various skin, nail, hair, and mucous membrane disorders such as acne, eczema, vitiligo, fungus, hair loss, skin cancer, and warts.

A Master of Science is a graduate degree that can be obtained by students who have first completed a bachelor’s program in a similar field. An MSc typically takes about two years of full-time study to earn.
