Graduates of the program have been able to enroll in a wide variety of graduate programs, internships, and professional schools. Under the guidance of biology and chemistry faculty, students develop their expertise in areas that are basic to their successful participation in a research laboratory. During the academic year, after successfully completing the summer program, students have the opportunity to work in participating faculty member laboratories where they assist in new or on-going research. Course credit can be arranged by approval of faculty. A yearly national symposium allows students the opportunity to present their research to faculty and students from other schools across the nation.
Resources are also available during the academic year.
Students are responsible for their room and board costs during the summer. A committee of faculty and staff reviews the applications, and qualified applicants will be interviewed.
