DESCRIPTION

The Department of Biology offers several Teaching Assistantships for MS and PhD students on a competitive basis. The MS Teaching Assistantship includes a full tuition award, a 9-month stipend of $16,500, and 75% of student health insurance at TCU.

Students can receive research and travel support by applying for the Drenner Student Research Fund, named in honor of Dr. Ray Drenner, a long-time biology faculty member. The fund was established through the generosity of Dave Hambright, Ph.D., Pamela Genova, Ph.D. and former students of Dr. Ray Drenner to recognize his 44 years of teaching and mentoring at TCU. The fund supports Biology undergraduate and graduate student research and travel to scientific meetings to present their research. Please consult your faculty mentor if you are interested in applying for the Murphy Fund.
