Majority of our students receive financial support to pursue graduate education in our program. While several of our students receive internal (UC Davis or Biological Systems Engineering) or external fellowships (Fulbright, home country, etc.), many others are supported as Graduate Student Researchers (GSR) or Teaching Assistants (TA). We also offer several nonresident tuition (NRT) fellowships for well qualified students.
Course Details
Course Structure
The major area of interest should be identified and a very tentative study program outlined before selecting courses for the first quarter. Later during the first year, the doctoral student should pursue the development of the study program in more detail with the guidance committee. Courses included in the study program should be selected to provide a suitable base for dissertation research. Once approved by the Guidance Committee, the program of study must be submitted for approval by the Executive Committee of the Graduate Program by the end of the first year of residence.
