Exploring New Careers

“This course work is phenomenal, well formulated and presented. I must say, from someone who has worked in the industry, it clearly is a great refresher to many topics. It also provided a complete new appreciation for some topics I didn’t have previously, and in my opinion, is so well done for students who may only be reviewing the subject for the first time.” 

Tom Staab
Participant, Introduction to Biotechnology  

Building Skills and Confidence

“The Leadership Development classes have helped me think about my career future, what I want for myself, and helped me build the confidence to go for it.”

April Arnold
