Research Facilities Graduate training is undertaken primarily in the Department of Pharmacology and Toxicology, which is a part of the Health Sciences Center. The facility provides ample modern office and laboratory space for faculty members and graduate students. Laboratories are well equipped for the conduct of a wide variety of research activities. Students also train in research laboratories in other departments as their needs may demand. The large, modern Health Sciences Library is located adjacent to the College of Pharmacy and School of Medicine.
Support enabling students to present results of their research at national meetings is available.
Tuition and fees are paid by the department. Off-campus housing, which most single graduate students choose, is readily available near the University. Student Group Twenty-three graduate students are matriculated in the graduate program in pharmacology and toxicology. Student Outcomes Graduates of the program usually receive additional training as postdoctoral fellows at outstanding universities and research institutions. Others have found research positions at companies such as Merck, Burroughs Wellcome, Lilly, Upjohn, and Genentech.
