University graduate programs as well as support for graduate students and faculty.

The Graduate School aims to provide a rich intellectual, academic and research environment
for educating students to become leaders in the discovery, dissemination, and application
of knowledge. To help facilitate this, our graduate faculty members are selected based
on experience in research, scholarship and education. They are drawn from the faculties
of Augusta University’s College of Allied Health Sciences, College of Arts, Humanities
and Social Sciences, Hull College of Business, Dental College of Georgia, College
of Education and Human Development, College of Science and Mathematics, College of
Nursing, School of Computer & Cyber Sciences and the Medical College of Georgia. Class
sizes are small, and the faculty excels in cultivating and modeling supportive, collegial
and professional relationships with students.
With outstanding programs in Allied Health, Biological and Computational Mathematics,
Biomedical Sciences, Biomolecular Science, Biostatistics, Business, Computer and Cyber
Science, Education, Intelligence and Security Studies, Medical Illustration, Nursing,
and Public Administration- earning a graduate degree from Augusta University is time
well spent!
