All applications for graduate study at the University of Kentucky Graduate School must be submitted online. We use Hobsons ApplyYourself Application Network, a system used by over 700 colleges and universities that provides an opportunity to submit all Graduate School and program requirements in one application including letters of recommendation and other required application materials. You may apply for as many programs as you wish, but each application requires completion of a separate application form and submission of a separate application fee. Currently, the fee for domestic applicants is $65.00 per application and for international applicants, the fee is $75.00. To apply, please visit: http://gradschool.uky.edu/
Our department consists of 23 tenured/tenure track Core Faculty with a primary appointment in Toxicology and Cancer Biology and includes our Department Chair, Dr. Xiaoqi Liu, Ph.D. The diversity of training opportunities is enhanced by faculty who have Joint Appointments in the department, but whose primary appointments are in Departments and Colleges across the University. The Department of Toxicology and Cancer Biology has graduated more than 150 PhDs in Toxicology who have gone on to careers in academia, government, such as the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), and in the pharmaceutical and chemical industry. The department maintains a robust extramurally supported training environment, including an NIEHS T32 training grant for doctoral students in toxicology, which has been continuously funded since 1990 and has been renewed for funding until 2021.
