Interdisciplinary Biological Sciences, PhD

Terry L. West, Director, BN-108 Howell Science Complex

The interdisciplinary doctoral program in biological sciences (IDPBS) brings together students and faculty from multiple disciplines to study a broad variety of interesting biological phenomena. The interdisciplinary program is 77-84 s.h., including 11-12 s.h. from the general and molecular/cellular core curricula, at least 48 s.h. from the research core and at least 18 s.h. from a specific concentration. The concentrations are: biology; biomedical science; and chemistry. Other appropriate graduate-level courses may be added by agreement of the research advisor, graduate program director, and the IDPBS advisory committee. A complete listing of courses for each concentration, and additional program information, is available at the IDPBS Web site (www.ecu.edu/idpbs/)
