Undergraduate
Because of the Summer Undergraduate Research Fellowship, not only did I get to focus on what I love for entire summer, but I also got a chance to learn new techniques that I will be able to take with me to graduate school and beyond.
The Department offers students the opportunity to perform undergraduate research and work with faculty on cutting-edge research projects. Approximately 80 undergraduates enroll in Independent Research each semester and gain valuable experience working in a lab.

A number of BMB courses integrate research projects into the course curriculum
