Notes

Rotation model inferred from 'first-year courses focus on basic aspects' and 'instructors come from all three Ph.D. programs' suggesting broad exposure. International funding status is 'partial' because financial aid is available to all students including tuition waivers and stipends for first/second year, but funding responsibility transitions to advisors/programs in later years. Application deadline and GRE policy not stated. Stipend amount described as 'nationally competitive' but no specific dollar amount provided.
