Interdepartmental Toxicology Graduate Program - M.S./Ph.D.

Molecular Biology Building

The Toxicology Graduate program is recruiting 4 to 6 new students for Fall 2009. Our deadline for consideration for Fall 2009 admission is February 1, 2009. Stipend is between $1650 to $1746 per month depending on source of funding. Students on assistantships receive Tuition Scholarships and paid single health insurance. We recruit domestic and international applicants. An interest in our faculty's research is essential. To be considered for admission you must state area of research interest and/or specific faculty in the toxicology program. This can be as general or as specific as you deem appropriate.

Application process. Domestic applicants are reviewed upon completion of their application. Students are admitted either directly to a lab or are recruited to participate in rotations. Faculty interest in an application is essential. Generally decisions regarding admission run between March 15 and May 15. Once a student has been advised of the acceptability of their application, the student will be encouraged to contact faculty in whose research they are interested.

GREs, TOEFLS and GPAs: We do not have minimum GRE scores, but good scores are a plus. We look for TOEFL scores around 600/250/100. We look for GPAs around 3.4. We consider the entire application. Appropriate course preparation and research experience are esssential. For GRE/TOEFL codeing Iowa State University is 6306 and Toxicology is 0219.
