Student Support Full tuition and stipend support are provided during the first year of the program. From the second year onward, BMSD students may compete for a number of NIH training grants available at UW, or individual fellowships. Students are also supported through faculty research grants. The BMSD began as a new program with its first class of graduate trainees in fall 1996. Faculty members in the program have an established record of training graduate students from all over the world, with a wide variety of backgrounds.
All students are full-time students working toward the Ph.D. degree.
The Admissions Committee looks for individuals with outstanding academic records who have demonstrated abilities in research. Successful applicants should be highly motivated and interested in interdisciplinary approaches to research. This essential material has been excerpted from a current Peterson's print publication.
