国际学生入学条件
We take a holistic approach to reviewing applications, looking carefully at grades, coursework, letters of recommendation, the personal statement, GRE scores (if provided, per below) and other factors (such as past experience). For grades, we require a minimum GPA of 3.0, competitive applicants typically have overall GPAs of 3.5 or above. There is no specific coursework we look for, except for some basic training in statistics and research methods (e.g., Introduction to Statistics), rather, we are looking for a fit to our department, which is interdisciplinary. Although some of our applicants also have Master's level work, this is certainly not necessary. Given our interdisciplinary nature, A BA or BS degree in many different domains would be relevant (e.g., Psychology, Neuroscience, Health Promotion, Biology, Microbiology, Epidemiology, Biobehavioral Health, or others).

Biobehavioral Health (BBH) is an innovative interdisciplinary program that enables students to explore all factors-biological, behavioral, social/ cultural, and environmental-that influence the health of individuals and groups throughout the life span. The graduate program in biobehavioral health is a part of Penn State's College of Health and Human Development-the first college in the country with a combined emphasis on human development and human health. The graduate program in Biobehavioral Health applies an interdisciplinary, translational approach to training on biological, behavioral, sociocultural, and environmental influences on the health of individuals, groups, and communities. Biological and behavioral perspectives, in particular, are emphasized equally as fundamental and interacting influences on health and disease. Scholars and professionals who can bring this integrated perspective to their work are needed in research, teaching, and policy roles in a variety of settings, including the health care field, research laboratories, government agencies, universities, and medical schools.
