The Program in Molecular Biology at the University of Colorado
Denver School of Medicine has traditionally been well-funded:
- In 1989, the training program was awarded a $5 million
Lucille Markey Charitable Trust award to be used over a
6-year period to provide needed initial funds that allowed
the program to grow aggressively in its early stages.
- In 1999, the Molecular Biology Program was awarded an NIH pre-doctoral training grant, which was renewed in 2004. Currently, 5 students are supported by this grant annually.
- Our faculty are successful and well-funded. The
Molecular Biology faculty members bring in excess of $20
million in individual grant funds to the University each
year.
- Many of our faculty are co-investigators on other training grants at the university.
- Bolie endowment currently funds student travel to national/international meetings.
- Several of our students have been successful in
obtaining their own competitive pre-doctoral fellowship
awards from various private and federal funding agencies.
- Students entering the Molecular Biology Program are
supported fully for tuition, health insurance and
fees. In addition, each student receives a $24,500
annual stipend.
- The UCD Financial Aid Office has various options to
supplement student stipends. (see Graduate School
site: finances and support)
