Join a community of scholars and researchers working together to solve pressing global problems.
We are committed to recruiting the very best PhD students and preparing doctoral students for career success. UB features:
We support our PhD students as long as they make satisfactory progress towards their degree. Advanced PhD students are often funded as research assistants through their advisor’s research grant. Others serve as teaching assistants. Additional support for research and travel is available to our students through Department and University Sources.
Dr. Darrell Doyle served as professor and Chair of the Biological Sciences department from 1983 -1992. He was an invaluable colleague, leader, researcher, teacher, and mentor. Dr. Doyle was an enthusiastic supporter, motivator and mentor of Biological Sciences graduate students. To continue that legacy of graduate student support, the Darrell Doyle Travel Award is awarded to the three best platform presentations and to the three best student presentations at the Annual Departmental Research Symposium. Donations to support the Darrell Doyle Travel Award Fund can be made here.
