Other Requirements

In addition to the University's minimum requirements and those listed above, all applicants are expected to submit the departmental application through the Schools of Public Health Application Service (SOPHAS] and a statement of purpose.

Applicants should have an excellent record, perform satisfactorily on the Graduate Record Examination (GRE), have completed a minimum of a four-unit undergraduate course in statistics, and be acceptable to the admissions committee.

The ideal preparatory training is either a major in chemistry or biology and a solid background in both of these disciplines. Courses of value for toxicologists include the following: calculus, statistics, cell biology, genetics, physiology, microbiology, molecular biology, inorganic chemistry, organic chemistry, biochemistry, and physical chemistry. However, excellent students from all disciplines are considered for admission, and if admitted, there is the opportunity to make up deficiencies during their graduate study.

A master's degree is not a prerequisite for admission.
