Welcome

Welcome to QBioS.  The Interdisciplinary Graduate Program in Quantitative Biosciences (QBioS) at Georgia Tech was established in 2015, with our inaugural class of Ph.D. students joining us in Fall 2016. In fall 2025, we welcome our tenth cohort, with 48 active Ph.D. students and 27 alumni. QBioS has 60 participating program faculty representing six participating Schools within the College of Sciences. We welcome applications from students interested in innovative research on living systems building upon a foundation of rigorous and flexible training. The QBioS program will prepare a new generation of researchers for quantitative challenges, new discoveries, and fulfilling careers at the interface of the physical, mathematical, computational and biological sciences. Apply by December 1, 2025 to join the class of students entering the QBioS Ph.D. program in August 2026.
