Explore All Bioscience Programs at UW-Madison
There are many Graduate Programs in which mycology researchers train PhD students. When you apply to UW-Madison, you can apply to three programs for a single admission fee. Because most fungal researchers take students from many different programs, you can investigate multiple programs to find a good fit. There are also different levels of competition to get into different programs (but once you are in a lab, the training is very similar).
Students studying in Fungal Biology labs generally come from the following programs:
- Microbiology Doctoral Training Program
- Cellular and Molecular Biology Program
- Genetics Training Program
- Plant Pathology
- Botany
- Cellular and Molecular Pathology
- Molecular and Environmental Toxicology
- Comparative Biosciences (direct admit only program)
- Pharmaceutical Sciences
- Biomedical Engineering
We encourage you to explore widely and find programs that provide the best fit for you!
