PhD Curriculum

Credit Requirements

The Ph.D. program in Cellular and Molecular Pharmacology normally requires a minimum of 32 credits of coursework and 40 credits of advanced research. Students who transfer with advanced standing can transfer a limited number of graduate level credits from their previous academic institution.

Students are normally required to achieve a grade point average of "B" (3.0) or better to maintain enrollment in the Pharmacology Graduate Program. Students who fail to achieve this average may petition the Executive Committee for an exception.
