Admission to the Natural Resources, PhD program is determined by a School Review Committee after the student has met the requirements for admission to the Graduate School. Most applicants will have earned a masters degree before applying to the doctoral program. In exceptional cases, students with an undergraduate degree only will be admitted to the PhD program. All students applying for admission are expected to have at least a B average (3.0 on 4.0 scale) on undergraduate and previous graduate coursework. Minimum acceptable GRE score is 302 (verbal plus quantitative combined). All application forms are located on UT’s Graduate Admissions website.
All application forms are processed within the School by the Graduate Program Coordinator. A Review Committee composed of three potential major professors in the field of study review each application. A recommendation is made to the Graduate School by the Graduate Coordinator in counsel with the Departmental Review Committee.
