Program Description

Scripps Research's doctoral program is an interdisciplinary graduate program that provides rigorous training in chemistry, chemical biology, biology, neurosciences, immunology, cell biology, chemical physiology, and biophysics. When students enroll in the program, they do not join a department, but rather pursue their graduate studies with access to the entire curriculum and faculty affiliated with the school regardless of the faculty member’s department. This approach allows students to be broadly trained and emphasizes the creation of basic knowledge in biosciences.

About the School

Educating, training, and inspiring the scientists of tomorrow is in Scripps Research's DNA. We offer a wide range of programs that translate the promise of biomedical research into learning opportunities for adults and children alike.

The Skaggs Graduate School of Chemical and Biological Sciences offers a top-10 ranked doctoral program that empowers graduate students to make high-impact discoveries at the interface of chemistry and biology. Undergraduate internship programs give college students the hands-on laboratory experience and mentorship needed to succeed in graduate school and beyond. Young scientists with a doctoral degree who seek further training as an independent researcher can find extensive opportunities for professional development as a postdoctoral fellow in one of our 200+ laboratories.

We also offer programs for high school students and science teachers, with opportunities to gain cutting-edge knowledge and conduct laboratory research. As engaged members of our communities in California and Florida, we are proud to offer outreach programs designed to inspire curious minds of all ages.
