701 PhD programmes in Biology

A multi-tiered menu of graduate courses allows students to broaden perspectives and delve deeply into chosen specializations. The Biological Sciences programme is offered at the Columbia University.

The Cancer Biology program from The University of Arizona allows students to focus their training in several related disciplines which have in common research faculty studying various aspects of cancer biology.  

Veterinary Clinical Sciences from Louisiana State University is designed to enhance competitiveness and scholarship. The objective of this program is to provide students with the tools to conduct original research in clinical sciences of small, large, and exotic animals.

New fields of scientific inquiry are emerging at a breathtaking pace. In the biological sciences, emphasis will be increasingly on quantitation and prediction of living systems—precisely the focus of biophysics. Biophysics at Johns Hopkins University is a discipline that sits at the interface between biology, chemistry, physics, mathematics, computation, and engineering.

The Biology program from University of Missouri–St. Louis emphasizes empirical and theoretical approaches to biological research. Students are required to integrate basic skills in biology with focal studies in an emphasis area.

There are two degree tracks in the Biology PhD program from University of Houston, Cell and Molecular Biology (CMB) Degree Track and Ecology and Evolution Degree Track.

Molecular Biology (Postgraduate Research) PhD students at the University of Wolverhampton are supervised by academics who are leading experts in their particular area of expertise. At least one academic in each supervisory team will have a track record of successful supervisions.

The mission of the Marine Biology and Ecology (MBE) PhD program at the University of Miami, is to train the next generation of scientists in the fundamental skills, knowledge, and practice of biology of the oceanic environment. 

The graduate program in Biophysics offered by the University at Buffalo is known for the excellence of its research faculty and flexibility of the program.

The Computational Cell Biology, Anatomy and Pathology PhD program from the University at Buffalo is a unique connector between the basic and clinical sciences.

The University of Tennessee-Oak Ridge National Laboratory Graduate School of Genome Science and Technology (GST) is a unique and multidisciplinary program for full time graduate study leading to the Master of Science or Doctor of Philosophy degree.  The Life Sciences program is offered by the University of Tennessee Knoxville.

The Biology program from the University of Miami aims to train graduate students in integrative research, with a curriculum that exposes students to the major sub-disciplines of biology and a program that allows enough flexibility to develop interdisciplinary work. Our major strengths include developmental biology, global change biology, neuroscience, and species interactions.

The Biological Sciences program from Louisiana State University emphasizes modern interdisciplinary approaches to biology in areas such as bioinformatics, systematics, ecology, cell biology, and physiology; and also the traditional organism based approaches such as botany, microbiology and zoology.

The Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.) in Biology - Environment offered by the Department of Biology in the Faculty of Science at McGill University is a research-intensive program that emphasizes stimulating and well-structured learning opportunities.

The Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.) in Biology offered by the Department of Biology in the Faculty of Science at McGill University is a research-intensive program that emphasizes stimulating and well-structured learning opportunities.

The Joint Carnegie Mellon-University of Pittsburgh Ph.D. Program in Computational Biology (CPCB) provides interdisciplinary training in using quantitative and computational approaches to tackle scientific questions that lie at the interface of the life, physical, engineering, and computer sciences.

This PhD in Biology is a research degree programme offered at The Chinese University of Hong Kong.

The PhD program in Biology at Tufts University is a research-intensive program that also has a strong focus on teaching, designed to produce top scientists and educators with a broad base of knowledge to tackle the most important biological problems of today.

This Biology PhD degree program is offered by the School of Life Sciences and Biotechnology at Shanghai Jiao Tong University.

Medical College of Wisconsin’s Biophysics PhD program is home to the National Biomedical Electron Paramagnetic Resonance (EPR) Center and features two areas of primary research: Molecular Biophysics and Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI).
