Graduate Programs in BioMed
The Biomedical Engineering Program provides cutting-edge, interdisciplinary, graduate-level education at the interface of engineering, biology, and medicine.
Brown University’s two-year, on-campus master’s in biotechnology immerses students in the cutting-edge science and dynamic industry of biotech.
The Center for Computational Molecular Biology (CCMB) offers Ph.D. degrees in Computational Biology to train the next generation of scientists in the development, implementation, and application of analytical and computational methods to foundational questions in the biological and medical sciences.
The Ecology, Evolution, and Organismal Biology Graduate Program is intended for highly qualified students who plan to pursue a career that includes research in the fields of ecology and environmental science, organismal biology, and/or evolutionary biology.
The mission of the Molecular Biology, Cell Biology and Biochemistry Graduate Program (MCBGP) is to build and sustain an equitable and inclusive training environment in which a diverse group of PhD students will successfully gain quantitative, conceptual, technical, and professional skills that will allow them to conduct the rigorous and reproducible research demanded by interdisciplinary life science.
The Neuroscience graduate program provides an intensive, multidisciplinary education in neuroscience. Our core curriculum provides instruction about molecular, cellular, systems, cognitive, and translational neuroscience, and diseases of the nervous system. At all stages of instruction, we integrate skills that are essential for successful, independent research careers in neuroscience.
The Pathobiology program at Brown is interdisciplinary and devoted to defining and understanding mechanisms of disease through the application of molecular biological, biochemical, genetic and immunological methodologies. The program has four major research themes: toxicology and environmental pathology, immunology and infection, aging, and cancer biology.
The Therapeutic Sciences program offers students an intimate, congenial and collaborative learning environment that draws upon faculty experts from the life and physical science departments, as well as physician-scientists at affiliated hospitals. TSGP offers advanced training appropriate for academic and research careers with a focus on determining disease mechanisms and drug actions, and developing novel therapies.
