Choosing a Great Microbiology School for Your Doctor's Degree

Your choice of microbiology for getting your doctor's degree school matters. Important measures of a quality microbiology program can vary widely even among the top schools. Below we explain some of the most important factors to consider before making your choice:

Overall Quality Is a Must

A school that excels in educating for a particular major and degree level must be a great school overall as well. To account for this we consider a school's overall Best Colleges for a Doctor's Degree ranking which itself looks at a host of various factors like degree completion, educational resources, student body caliber and post-graduation earnings for the school as a whole.

Other Factors We Consider

The metrics below are just some of the other metrics that we use to determine our rankings.

• Major Focus - How many resources a school devotes to microbiology students as compared to other majors.
• Major Demand - How many other microbiology students want to attend this school to pursue a doctor's degree.
• Educational Resources - How many resources are allocated to students. These resources may include educational expenditures per student, number of students per instructor, and graduation rate among other things.
• Accreditation - Whether a school is regionally accredited and/or accredited by a recognized microbiology related body.

Our full ranking methodology documents in more detail how we consider these factors to identify the best colleges for microbiology students working on their doctor's degree.
