Biology & Biotechnology Scholars Program
Now more than ever, it has become clear how much biology and biotechnology are at the core of our future. The people we see on the news everyday are trained scientists, talking about the global problems we face in medicine, agriculture and the environment and their solutions. Whether it’s developing novel therapeutics & vaccines, using CRISPR to treat genetic diseases or metagenomics to monitor ecosystems these solutions are grounded in biological research. Reflecting this, in Biology and Biotech our faculty believe strongly in involving undergraduates in fundamental and authentic research experiences and real-world applications.
To help better prepare you to go out and make an impact through Biology on these global problems we have developed the Biology & Biotechnology Scholars Program (BBTSP).
