SUNY Upstate Medical University's College of Graduate Studies awards the Ph.D. and M.S. in a variety of Biomedical Research Departments. The College of Graduate Studies is part of an academic medical center, one of only 140 in the country, and is home to a well-funded, interdisciplinary research enterprise.

This is a forward-thinking university that fosters a supportive environment as it maintains high standards of intellectual excellence. Our graduate students in the biomedical sciences enjoy a student faculty ratio of nearly one-to-one. Our students consistently praise the individual attention they receive from their advisors, and they also enjoy mentoring from upper-level graduate students and other researchers across campus.
