Doctor's degrees in Biology + Biological Sciences, General: A general program of biology at the introductory, basic level or a program in biology or the biological sciences that is undifferentiated as to title or content. Includes instruction in general biology and programs covering a variety of biological specializations.
Our Doctor of Philosophy program specializes in aquatic biology, terrestrial ecology, and genetics. In the doctoral program, the intent is to develop in the student an extensive working knowledge in a subdiscipline of biology. This program involves an in-depth, independent, original research experience culminating in an approved dissertation. It is expected that the doctoral graduate will be properly equipped with the knowledge and training needed...
The graduate program is planned by selection of an appropriate sequence of courses in consultation with the major professor and advisory committee. However, training has been formalized in several areas of specialization. Financial support is provided in the form of fellowships or traineeships from such federal agencies as NIH and NSF.

Since this range of topics is so broad, prospective students are strongly encouraged to browse the engineering website to further explore individual research activities. Students usually identify an advisor...
Graduate research leading to the Ph.D. degree is chiefly in the following fields: biochemistry, biophysics, cell biology, developmental biology, genetics, immunology, molecular biology, structural biology, neurobiology, and virology. Biochemical methodology plays an important role in many of these fields, and there is extensive interaction with related programs in biochemistry within the Division of Chemistry and Chemical Engineering, notably the...
The Ph.D. in Biological Sciences program at Carnegie Mellon University exemplifies the interdisciplinary approach that has become an essential feature of modern biomedical science.
