The PhD program is interdisciplinary both in course work and research (basic science and translational) to provide a strong foundation for a career in integrative physiology, and of equal importance, create a mindset and background that will enable the trainees to develop and/or move into new and evolving scientific fields. The major emphasis of the program is to provide state-of-the-art research training. This training will be obtained under the supervision by a team of our primary Physiology mentors, and co-mentors from other basic science and clinical faculty.
Our primary objective is to provide outstanding training across the broad discipline of physiology, by giving students an in-depth knowledge of the fundamental mechanisms and processes which underlie circulatory, renal, pulmonary, and smooth muscle function in wellness and in disease. The graduates of our program will be prepared to contribute to achievement of the long-term goals of developing improved strategies for prevention and control of these diseases. Moreover, our graduates will be trained for integrative physiology that includes whole animal, cellular, and molecular research; thus they will be prepared to be leaders in physiology research, and to teach traditional systems physiology.
The students with a Ph.D. in physiology can research their area of specialty further to assist patients or contribute to advancing research. A physiology degree can provide the students with a foundation to work in science, academia or medicine. This degree will help to develop the critical thinking, analytical, communication and laboratory skills. The graduates can pursue careers in research, medical sales, healthcare, pharmaceuticals or teaching.
