About This Program

Students interested in pursuing multidisciplinary research to gain a broad perspective in chemistry and biology are encouraged to apply to the Chemistry-Biology Interface (CBI) PhD program. The CBI Program spans departments in Johns Hopkins University’s schools of Arts and Sciences, Engineering, Medicine, and Public Health. Selected applicants will be asked to visit Johns Hopkins University for an interview. The CBI Program will arrange for meetings with faculty and students, and conduct tours of the facilities and community. Additional admissions information can be found here. In addition, the general GRE along with one of the following subject tests are optional but may be submitted:
