A commitment to provide an innovative laboratory and teaching environment. The major is laboratory intensive, in contrast with superficially similar programs at large research institutions where it is possible for students to graduate with little curricular laboratory experience. Use of research as a vital component of the undergraduate educational experience. Our level of undergraduate involvement in scholarly scientific research is unequaled in the UW system and compares favorably with the most prestigious liberal arts colleges. Most impressively, over 35 BMB undergraduate students have been coauthors on over 17 refereed scholarly publications or presenters of over 50 off-campus research presentations at national, regional and international meetings since 1989.
