How to become an embryologist?

Career: Embryologist

To become an embryologist, you need a bachelor’s degree in biology or a related field followed by a master’s degree in clinical science or reproductive science. What you do next depends on your chosen career path. For clinical embryologist jobs, you must earn a medical degree, pass the medical board exams, and complete a residency before being qualified to practice embryology on your own. To work in academia or do research for private companies, you do not need to go to medical school, but most employers require a doctorate in the field.
