综合与应用科学哲学博士-生物学

这种集中致力于利用生物信息学或综合地理空间生物学进行生物学研究。必修的核心课程可以在生物系修读。建立了综合与应用科学（IAS）博士课程，以扩大学生对所有科学领域的了解，鼓励跨部门和学院之间的合作，并更好地培训研究生向更广泛的受众介绍研究成果。该跨学科课程规模足够大，可以使学生广泛地参与协作式科学项目，但规模又很小，可以使学生与教师导师进行一对一的互动。这种个性化的方法对于发展沟通技巧是必要的，这将增加学生的就业机会，并且根据SLU的耶稣会传统，为他们提供工具，以更好地为社会做贡献。集成与应用科学（IAS）
This concentration is geared toward biological research with bioinformatics or integrated geospatial biology. Required core courses may be taken in the Biology Department. The Integrated and Applied Sciences (IAS) doctoral program was established to broaden student exposure to all areas of science, encourage collaboration across departments and colleges, and better train graduate students to present their research to a more diverse audience. This interdisciplinary program is large enough to provide students with broad exposure to collaborative scientific projects, yet small enough for students to have one-on-one interaction with their faculty mentor. This personalized approach is necessary for developing the communication skills that will enhance employment opportunities for students and, in keeping with SLU's Jesuit tradition, endow them with tools to better contribute to society. The Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.) program in integrated and applied sciences (IAS) utilizes interdisciplinary approaches and collaboration within the fields to prepare graduates to confidently assume multi-faceted roles in the changing scientific community. Students specialize in a concentration depending on their primary mentor's research area. Concentrations include: Biology, Chemistry, Physics and Environmental Science and GIS.
