Student Opportunities:

The Voiland School offers excellent research facilities, the flexibility to design an individualized academic program, and the ability to work closly with highly engaged faculty. We also offer students the opportunity to participate in an NIH (National Institutes of Health) sponsored training program in protein Biochemistry, and we encourage students to participate in internship programs at partner institutions. One of the main partners involved in our internship programs is Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL). PNNL specializes in analyzing and understanding the impacts of the interface between science and society.
