PREP: Post-Baccalaureate Research Program
PREP provides a year of post-baccalaureate training to minority students who have indicated a desire to enter graduate school with the aim of obtaining a Ph.D. degree in the Biomedical Sciences.
Providing students with meaningful research opportunities is important. We offer a variety of programs from year-long lab assignments for students pursuing research careers to shorter programs for students wanting to develop basic research skills.
The School of Medicine offers several funded research programs for students.
