PHD IN BIOLOGY

Today there are several PhD programs in Biology located around the world, each offering unique programs and perspectives, with high quality education and professional faculty. Many PhD in Biology programs are innovative and interactive with students working closely with other students as well as faculty.

Doctoral programs in biology generally include a strong foundation in biological knowledge, as well as in subjects such as ecology, evolutionary biology, molecular, cell and developmental biology, and neuroscience. Doctoral programs in biology generally consist of challenging courses, seminars, laboratory work, research, and dissertations, all working closely with faculty.

What is a PhD in Biology ?

A PhD in Biology is a research degree and generally takes at least five years of academic study. Applicants to the PhD in Biology program must have completed a bachelor’s degree in biology or a closely related field. The main objective of a PhD in Biology is to train students at the highest level in one of the three general sub-fields within modern biology: Cellular and Molecular Biology, Neurobiology and Ecology, Behavior, Evolution, and Marine Biology.

Upon completion of the PhD in Biology students should be prepared for graduate training and eventually for assuming teaching and/or research positions in academia, industry, government or non-profit agencies.
