The doctoral program in biological and environmental sciences brings together faculty from multiple departments and supports research across several specializations. Doctoral students select an area aligned with their scientific goals, spanning topics from cellular biology to food and farming systems. Faculty mentorship guides candidates through each stage.
Specializations cover cell and molecular biology, ecosystems, sustainable agriculture, environmental and earth sciences, and evolutionary and marine biology. Study takes place at the Kingston and Narragansett Bay campuses. Candidates work in laboratories and field settings across the program, and research emphasis is central to the training.
The doctoral pathway is structured for full-time study with a longer timeline devoted to independent research. Applicants should consult the course schedule, course descriptions and catalog to plan their studies, and build in time for a dissertation.
