Practicum Committee

The practicum committee has a central objective to provide "hands-on training" in current and emerging biotechnologies. The practicum should aim to empower students to learn about cutting-edge technologies and to catalyze the integration of these methodologies into their own research projects and laboratories. This full day event is generally divided into theoretical (morning) and experiential (afternoon) components.
