Graduate Interdisciplinary Program in Neuroscience
A program focused on excellence and cross-collaboration
The University of Arizona offers a Ph.D.in Neuroscience through the Graduate Interdisciplinary Program. The Program is designed to provide students with state-of-the-art knowledge and tools they need to embark on independent research careers in academia and industry as well as leadership positions in academic medicine and on scientific regulatory boards. Students participate in designing their own individually tailored programs that provide a thorough base of knowledge in the many facets of neuroscience as well as depth in chosen areas of specialization. Because of the breadth of expertise represented by faculty, students have access to education and research training opportunities in areas ranging from molecular, cellular, systems, behavioral, cognitive, theoretical, and clinical neuroscience.
