A four-week practicum gives you on-the-ground experience working in a laboratory, so at the end of your program, you're ready for the workplace.
The program is designed to give you a strong foundation in both scientific principles and analytic practices.
The emphasis is on developing your lab skills to prepare you for work in the biosciences, biomedical research, and applied research fields.
