| Although the Graduate Record Examination (GRE) is not required for admission to the Multidisciplinary PhD Program, it can be helpful in evaluating the academic credentials of students who have completed all of their prior education outside of the USA. In addition, we look for evidence of interest and experience in basic research. Before you apply please read the application requirements and application instructions. | |
