Doctor of Philosophy in Biomedical Sciences

The Biomedical Sciences Graduate Program is an interdepartmental program of study awarding a Master of Science (MS) and Doctor of Philosophy (PhD).  Focusing on cross-disciplinary education in the biomedical sciences and the numerous associated domains of research, the faculty teach and mentor students in fields that have a critical mass of faculty, exceptional productivity, and international recognition.  Examples of these areas of strength include:

  • Biomedical Genomics and Bioinformatics
  • Diagnostics and Therapeutics
  • Infection, Immunity, and Epidemiology
  • Physiology and Developmental Biology

A PhD in Biomedical Sciences provides an academic and research experience that educates students within the context of cross-disciplinary knowledge and prepares students to excel in a research career in areas as diverse as academia, government, industry, and others. Additional details, including information about the admissions process and curricular training tracks, can be found at http://vetmed.tamu.edu/graduate.
