Pediatrics courses are typically pursued as an MD rather than an MS. The MD Pediatrics is a PG medical degree that focuses on the comprehensive care of infants, children, and adolescents, including diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of childhood diseases. In contrast, MS generally pertains to surgical specializations. Therefore, to specialize in pediatrics, one would pursue an MD rather than an MS.
