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

The biological & biomedical sciences doctor's degree program you select can have a big impact on your future. This section explores some of the factors we include in our ranking and how much they vary depending on the school you select. When choosing a school we recommend considering some of the following factors:

Quality Overall Is Important

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 host of various factors like degree completion, educational resources, student body caliber and post-graduation earnings for the school as a whole.

Average Earnings

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.

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 & biomedical sciences students vs. other majors.
• Major Demand - The number of biological & biomedical sciences students who choose to seek a doctor's degree at the school.
• 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 biological & biomedical sciences 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 biological & biomedical sciences related body.

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

Insufficient Data for District of Columbia

Regrettably , we don't have adequate data to form a ranking of the top quality schools for biological & biomedical sciences in District of Columbia. This is usually due to there not being enough schools in District of Columbia that both offer biological & biomedical sciences and provided enough information for us to do a sufficient analysis.
