The Division of Biological Sciences offers 3 distinct graduate programs:
- PhD program with the Salk Institute
- Contiguous BS/MS program (UCSD students only)
- Joint Doctoral Program with SDSU
The UC San Diego Biological Sciences program is a partnership between the Division of Biological Sciences and the Salk Institute for Biological Studies. This creates a powerful and closely linked intellectual community, unified by the broad discipline of biological sciences.
Our programs boast over 100 faculty who provide a supportive and stimulating environment to enable highly talented individuals to develop the skills and experience necessary to become world-class scientists.
