Choosing a Great Biological & Physical Sciences School for Your Doctor's Degree

Your choice of biological & physical sciences for getting your doctor's degree school matters. Important measures of a quality biological & physical sciences program can vary widely even among the top schools. To make it into this list, a school must excel in the following areas.

A Great Overall School

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 include a college's overall Best Colleges for a Doctor's Degree ranking which itself looks at a combination of different 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 much a school focuses on biological & physical sciences students vs. other majors.
• Major Demand - How many other biological & physical sciences 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 biological & physical sciences related body.

Our complete ranking methodology documents in more detail how we consider these factors to identify the best schools for biological & physical sciences students working on their doctor's degree.

Insufficient Data for the Southeast Region
