Satisfactory completion of the requirement will be determined by the student's committee. Applicants for the Ph.D. program in Physiological Sciences should hold a bachelor's degree in one of the physical or biological sciences. A basic knowledge of biology, biochemistry, mathematics, physics, and computer use is required of all candidates for admission, although in some cases deficiencies may be made up during graduate training. The general test of the Graduate Record Examination and three letters of recommendation are required to assist in evaluation of applicants. Individual programs of study are determined with the student's mentor and the program committee.
Considerable flexibility is possible so that the needs of each student can be best served.
