[Zinc-fans] "computational Medicinal Chemistry" masters program - requesting suggestions

[elite 158]

Dear Zinc Fans and academic stalwarts,

Perhaps this isnt a forum to address such issues, but I write to you this
mail in high anticipation of receiving your esteemed opinions.

I have completed my graduate studies (4 years) in pharmaceutical sciences in
India sometime back, and since then working in the same industry (for the
past 4 years).

My current employment is as a senior research associate in a training
company which uses a certain commercial suite of software programs for
training participants in 'computational molecular modeling and drug design'.
I believe I have hit a dead-end with just a bachelors degree and I presume
my career path would be good if I earn a masters degree in a relevant area.
With afore mentioned academic history and work experience, I am currently
looking for a Masters program, especially in the area of "computational
medicinal chemistry".   It would also be great to explore any MS-PhD
integrated programs (if there are any).

As I plan to advance my academic career anywhere overseas, I see that my
current financial condition prohibits me from exploring any academic
opportunity without proper graduate assistantship. It would be great  if
anyone could help me suggest a department that would provide me the required
financial assistantship either through research or teaching and also would
help me add value to the department through my previous work experience.

Although I have spent considerable time looking through various University
websites and searching using google, I still seek your kind pointers and
helpful suggestions.  Kindly excuse me if this mail seems to be naive.


Regards,
