Doctor of Philosophy in Biomedical Science

The academic program for Ph.D. students features two years of general and specialized course work followed by a period of intensive research in an area selected by the student and his/her faculty mentor. Each program features a combination of required and elective courses. All students are required to take a graduate-level course in biochemistry and molecular biology. Students also receive training in preparation and presentation of seminars. Most courses are specifically tailored for Ph.D. students, although several programs also require specific medical school courses as part of their training program. A full description of academic programs, faculty research, course offerings and other academic matters are available in the Academic Programs and Admissions sections.

The successful Ph.D. candidate can expect to receive a stipend of at least $24,000/year, tuition remission and paid health insurance.
