Financial support for students enrolled in the PhD program is available in the form of a research/teaching assistantship, Public Health Service predoctoral training fellowships, and outside fellowships such as those from the American Foundation for Pharmaceutical Education and the pharmaceutical industry.
Financial support is awarded annually so long as substantial progress toward the degree is being made (see Research Assistantship). Annual evaluations will be based on grades and laboratory/research performance.
The department does not generally offer financial support for entry-level terminal MS candidates. However, we will assist the student (e.g., writing Letter of Recommendation) if they choose to seek financial support from extramural sources.
