What's on this page: * Our Methodology
The microbiology doctor's degree program you select can have a big impact on your future. Important measures of a quality microbiology program can vary widely even among the top schools. When choosing a school we recommend considering some of the following factors:
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 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.
To determine the overall quality of a graduate school, one factor we look at is the average early-career salary of those receiving their doctor's degree from the school. After all, your doctor's degree won't mean much if it doesn't help you find a job that will help you earn a living.
The metrics below are just some of the other metrics that we use to determine our rankings.
Our complete ranking methodology documents in more detail how we consider these factors to identify the best colleges for microbiological sciences & immunology students working on their doctor's degree.
Since picking the right college can be one of the most important decisions of your life, we've developed the Best Microbiological Sciences & Immunology Doctor's Degree Schools in the Far Western US Region ranking, along with many other major-related rankings, to help you make that decision.
