Biomedical Sciences, PhD

The interdisciplinary Biomedical Sciences, Ph.D. Program - is big enough to be at the forefront of research,is small enough for interactions with experts in day to day work, has a cooperative climate for training and research,has an established record of timely graduations and alumni successes,provides competitive stipends in a vibrant region with a low cost of living. You will work with a group of faculty members recently recognized as the fourth-most productive in terms of research and professional activity among “small research universities” (less than 15 Ph.D. programs) nationally. Learn from experts in their fields - editors and reviewers for numerous journals and granting organizations and researchers developing the latest cutting-edge methodologies and instrumentation. This fact isn’t just good for them; it’s also good for you. Our program is structured to give you one-on-one interaction with these experts. You will be trained to master sophisticated equipment, experimental methods, and current theory. You will personally contribute to grant proposals and author your own papers; you're not just a name at the bottom of a list.
