We offer three vibrant doctoral graduate programs that reflect the remarkably diverse faculty research interests in our department.
The Ecology, Evolution, Ecosystems and Society (EEES) program encompasses all areas of ecology, evolutionary biology, ecosystems and related disciplines, while the Molecular and Cellular Biology (MCB) program spans topics from biophysics to molecular pathogenesis. EEES students may help an MCB lab with modeling and statistics, while MCB labs may assist EEES students with molecular techniques—just one example of the many ways these groups create synergy.
We are an interactive and collegial community of scientists dedicated to innovative, world-class research. In this environment, we train our diverse student population to become precise and creative thinkers who impact science and society. Visit our website at https://graduate.dartmouth.edu/mcb/
The Integrative Neuroscience Graduate Program provides its students with rigorous neuroscience training in labs that will help them achieve their scientific ambitions and celebrate their success. The program features research across a wide range of research specialties ranging from Molecular, Cellular, Circuits, Systems, Perception, Behavior, Computation and Clinical Neuroscience.

Ecology & Evolutionary Biology (EEB) is one of two clusters within Dartmouth’s graduate program in Ecology, Evolution, Environment, and Society (EEES). The focus of the EEB cluster is the advancement of basic knowledge in ecology and evolutionary biology. Areas of inquiry include: the perception and responses of organisms to their environment; the dynamics of genomes, organisms, populations and communities in ecological and evolutionary time; and the properties of communities and ecosystems that permit and constrain resilience in the presence of environmental change. Study systems within EEB range from genes to ecosystems, microscopic to global, terrestrial to aquatic, local to international, and contemporary to deep evolutionary time. Research programs typically include a mix of experiments, bioinformatics, mathematical models, and structured field observations. In all cases, the goal is to gain new scientific understanding that is broader than the study system. Basic knowledge of ecology and evolutionary biology has always been relevant to human endeavors, but never more so than in the 21st century when it has become foundational to the environmental security of people everywhere
