Financial support for students enrolled in the PhD program is available in the form of a research assistantship, Public Health Service predoctoral training fellowships, and outside fellowships such as those from the American Foundation for Pharmaceutical Education and the pharmaceutical industry.<\/p>\n
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. A PhD student can expect to receive support for a period of 5 years if consistent progress is made towards the PhD degree. The period of support can be extended through petition.<\/p>\n
PhD students who are directed into a terminal MS track may receive continued support for up to 6 months from the time that the decision has been made in order to complete research requirements and to prepare an MS thesis.<\/p>\n
This will be contingent on continued research productivity. 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.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
