The Federated Department of Biological Sciences upholds principles of equal opportunity and respect for every student, staff member, and faculty, strictly prohibiting any form of discrimination or harassment. We actively embrace diverse perspectives, recognizing this as both an ethical imperative and a catalyst for innovative thinking that drives scientific progress. If you belong to a group historically underrepresented in science or biology, we strongly urge you to explore degree programs and career paths in this field.
Our Biology Ph.D. Program offers comprehensive training and research experiences aligned with the varied expertise of our Graduate Faculty from NJIT and Rutgers-Newark. Participants gain essential knowledge and critical thinking abilities for careers across biomedical, ecological, and evolutionary sciences. The curriculum cultivates deep comprehension of both fundamental and advanced biological concepts, along with rigorous analytical skills for evaluating scientific evidence.
