Prospective students are welcome at the Virtual Poster Sessions - come learn about the Program!
Poster Session to be held in Remo (Learn about the Remo Floorplan for the Biosymposium).
Bioscience Interns have spent 180+hrs over one semester in an internship at a local SF Bay Area lab. Students backgrounds vary from no science coursework prior to coming to the CCSF Biotechnology program to students with Bachelor's degrees in science or higher degrees from institutions outside the United States. All CCSF Bioscience Interns previously completed a Career Exploration in Biosciences course and presented a Career Exploration Poster at a prior CCSF Biosymposium.

Career Exploration Students have spent this past semester researching and developing a poster on a topic in Bioscience of their choosing in the Career Exploration in Biosciences course. These students come from a wide variety of science backgrounds - some have taken no prior college science courses while others hold a Bachelor's in Biology or other sciences.
