The Department of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine provides a PhD program focused on research. Students typically enter through the Indiana BioMedical Gateway (IBMG) program. During their first year, participants complete core coursework and rotate through multiple research labs. By the end of this initial year, students choose their primary research laboratory, which determines their degree department. To graduate, students must earn 90 credits, with a minimum of 35 credits from coursework and 45 credits from C859 Research in Pathology. Additional electives are available from Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, other IU School of Medicine departments, and IUPUI basic science programs, tailored to each student's research focus.
