The Graduate Program in Physiology and Integrative Biology (PIB) offers a PhD degree, with participation from research laboratories within the School of Graduate Studies. This program is designed to provide training at the interface of genomics, cell biology, and organismal physiology. Specific topics include molecular endocrinology, cardiovascular research, cancer biology, membrane structure and signal transduction, host-microbial interaction and the physiological bases of diseases. PhD students will receive a full tuition waiver, a stipend, and health benefits for the duration of their studies. Rutgers University campus housing is available to students.
PIB is part of the joint Molecular Biosciences graduate programs, co-sponsored by the School of Graduate Studies. Students enter PIB by applying to the Graduate Programs in Molecular Biosciences. Direct admissions to PIB can also be considered for students with an advanced background (e.g., students transferring from other universities with advanced courses or an M.S. degree). In the latter case, certain credit hours can be transferred toward the graduate degree.
A Master's degree in Physiology and Integrative Biology is no longer offered.
