The
Graduate School of Biomedical Sciences or the Program in
Molecular Pathology provides all students with a Graduate
Assistantship during the first year of study. This Assistantship,
currently set to $23,000 per annum will be increased to
$26,000 for the 2008-2009 academic year. The Assistantship
provides students with the flexibility needed in selecting
a faculty advisor. After the first year, students are supported
at the same annual stipend through faculty research grants
or student fellowship awards.
Student
tuition fees for (M.S.) Ph.D. students are also covered
either by the Graduate School or the academic advisor.
