Choosing a Great Genetics School for Your Doctor's Degree

Your choice of genetics for getting your doctor's degree school matters. Important measures of a quality genetics 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 take this into account we include a college's overall Best Colleges for a Doctor's Degree ranking which itself looks at a collection of different factors like degree completion, educational resources, student body caliber and post-graduation earnings for the school as a whole.

Average Early-Career Salaries

Average early-career salary of those graduating with their doctor's degree is one indicator we use in our analysis to find the schools that offer the highest-quality education. That is, everyone wants their doctor's degree to be worth something, and salaries are one measure of determining that.

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 genetics students as compared to other majors.
• Major Demand - How many other genetics 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.
• Student Debt - How easy is it for genetics to pay back their student loans after receiving their doctor's degree.
• Accreditation - Whether a school is regionally accredited and/or accredited by a recognized genetics related body.

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

Insufficient Data for Michigan

As a result of lacking data, we were not able to provide you with the genetics quality ranking. This is typically due to there not being enough schools in Michigan that both offer genetics and provided enough information for us to do a sufficient analysis.
