## Graduate Study
The Graduate Group in Integrative Pathobiology (GGIP) offers programs of study and research leading to M.S. and Ph.D. degrees and participates in joint Ph.D./M.D. and Ph.D./D.V.M. programs. GGIP emphasizes advanced knowledge of the causes, progression, and resolution of disease processes in humans and animals from molecular to global scale.
### Preparation
This program is primarily for applicants with a strong background in basic biomedical sciences. Admission requires an undergraduate degree (B.S. or B.A.) in a biological science, which should include prerequisite coursework in statistics, physics, general chemistry, organic chemistry, and cellular biology. Upper division courses in molecular biology, biochemistry, and genetics are encouraged.
