We are actively seeking new graduate students at the PhD and Masters level to participate in cutting edge infectious disease research in CIDR laboratories.
Please consider applying to our programs via the links below, and reaching out to the faculty with the research program that interests you. Graduate students with an interest in Infectious Diseases often are part of the Biosciences doctoral program or the Masters in Biology program and take their degrees with a concentration in Microbiology and Infectious Diseases (MID).
Biosciences, PhDThis program is a research-oriented field of study that prepares students for significant contributions in academic or industrial settings.
Students enrolled in our many degree programs have the opportunity to work closely with scientists in research centers affiliated with the School of Systems Biology. Students can enhance their academic programs with hands-on research in meaningful fields, which often leads to careers in those fields.
The Biosciences PhD program offers three areas of concentrations: Cell and Molecular Biology, Microbiology and Infectious Disease, and Biocomplexity and Evolutionary Biology.
