Virginia Commonwealth University offers an interdisciplinary course of graduate study leading to a doctoral degree for students with interests in the broad area of structural biology. The emphasis of this curriculum is on mastery of methods for the analysis of biomolecular structures and the application of these methods to solve problems of biological importance. Ph.D. or MD/Ph.D. students may seek entry to the Structural Biology program with the consent of their department or school and the approval of the Structural Biology faculty. Students with backgrounds in quantitative sciences who have an interest in biological structure problems are encouraged to seek entry.
