 In addition to individualized
advising and mentoring the department also offers personal and
professional development seminars and career exploration activities.
Students are helped to develop and achieve their goals. Our
alumni have used their training to prepare for successful careers
in traditional fields such as academic research and teaching,
medical research and practice, and biotechnology as well as
pharmaceutical fields. Others have been able to use their technical
training in biology as a foundation for professional growth
in fields such as law, policy, technical writing and advanced
management.
