GCB Ph.D. Program Open Houses

About the Open Houses

The Graduate Group in Genomics and Computational Biology (GCB) at Penn Invites prospective Ph.D. applicants to the second annual Open House sessions (formerly known as "Information sessions").

These are opportunities to learn about the Penn GCB program requirements, curriculum, and structure, have your questions about the application answered, and explore GCB graduate research opportunities here at Penn prior to submitting your application.

We aim to create a welcoming and Inclusive space for future scholars through information sessions that have brought together hundreds of future GCB students. Each session Is tailored to the interests of registrants and we create space for future applicants to network with current students as they navigate the application process.
