The Duke ideal for graduate education is small numbers of superior students working closely with esteemed scholars.
Our toxicology-focused PhD students chose Duke because:
“ … of the program’s commitment to interdisciplinary work.”
“… the students care about prioritizing hard work and life-balance in a healthy way, pursuing intense, passionate research as well as in their everyday lives.”
“… it was everything I wanted – prestigious, collaborative, supportive, rigorous … plus Durham is a great place!”
” … of the diversity of interests that are present among the students and the faculty. It offers fresh perspectives on the research questions that we are trying to answer and allows for truly unique collaborations to be made.”
