At the Biology Scholars Program, we work side-by-side with students to access their untapped talent and create their academic and career blueprints.

Our wrap-around multi-pronged approach includes student-centered mentoring, teaching, and alliance. Members belong to an inclusive community and environment that is the cornerstone of a rewarding and full college experience for all students, regardless of their backgrounds.
