The multidepartmental nature of the Center for Infectious Diseases fosters quality graduate student education and resident training. Support for students in the first year can come directly from their programs or from a Training Grant for Infectious Diseases. Students from the programs in Molecular Microbiology, Genetics, and Molecular and Cellular Biology are all eligible to choose a member of the CID faculty as their dissertation mentor. In subsequent years, the faculty of the CID can support graduate students whose project relate to any of the research studies carried out in the Center.

The Center for Infectious Diseases will be developing graduate education and fellowship programs in infectious diseases to include predoctoral students and postdoctoral fellows with special emphasis in the training of medical residents in basic or clinical research.

Stony Brook promotes a collegial, interactive environment. The Centers for Molecular Medicine illustrate the concept of scientific integration with an open floor laboratory plan and a multidisciplinary faculty. This offers an unparalleled training environment for graduate and postgraduate study.

Faculty of the Center for Infectious Diseases direct courses in Microbiology, Microbial Pathogenesis, and Human Pathology. They also participate in the teaching of Graduate Genetics and Immunology.
