Lulu Wang Scholars (LWS) Program

June – August

The LWS Program is a mentored research and curriculum-building experience for undergraduate students that spans two consecutive summers. The program culminates in the creation of a credit-bearing course, specifically in the form of a CURE (course for undergraduate research experiences), designed to help undergraduates build their molecular biology research skills. Visit the LWS program homepage.

Hunter x RockEDU Scholars

March – August

Aimed at supporting freshman and sophomores attending Hunter College, the Hunter x RockEDU Scholars program blends hands-on research training through collaborative team-based projects done alongside upper class high school students and Rockefeller scientists. Visit the Hunter x RockEDU homepage.

Upskill Workshop Series

Fall & Spring Semesters

The Upskill Workshop series is an entry-level research skills course that introduces core research and professional skills to Hunter College undergraduate students, and takes place during the fall and spring semesters.
