The Biotechnology program offers a unique opportunity for
students to learn about and practice a variety of laboratory techniques
in a state-of-the-art facility. The techniques used in the biotech
program are applicable to all areas of biological science and medicine
and serve as a springboard for advanced studies in science.
Paid
summer internships are available in research laboratories for qualified
