Students in the Ph.D. Programs have varied educational and geographical
backgrounds and are ethnically and culturally diverse. Throughout their studies, students are encouraged to interact professionally through laboratory collaborations as well as socially through various university, school and department functions. In addition, many students attend national and international meetings.
