Feb 13 -- Training Opportunities to Prepare for Graduate School

RTM: Friday, February 13
Time: 3:00-4:00
HA 330

Panel: RTG and Departmental Faculty
Topic: Training Opportunities to Prepare for Graduate School

Most students know that good grades and comprehensive coursework are necessary to be accepted to top graduate programs.  However, there are a number of factors that can augment your background to both improve your chances for grad school acceptance and success in a subsequent career.  These include summer internships, REU, research experiences during the year, etc.

The Feb 13 RTM will focus on these additional training opportunities and hence it should be of interest for all undergraduates considering graduate school.

Please note that you can find more information regarding both the RTG and associated RTM at the website

Thanks and we look forward to seeing you tomorrow.

Summer Institutes for Training in Biostatistics

Summer 2009 Opportunities for Undergraduate Students for Training
in Biostatistics

SIBS (Summer Institutes for Training in Biostatistics) is scheduled this
summer June 8--July 17.  SIBS is open to all US undergraduates (citizens
or permanent residents).  Sponsored by the National Heart, Lung, and Blood
Institute, the program has been very successful, but space is limited!

The program flyer (http://www.stat.ncsu.edu/sibs/SIBSbrochure_2009.pdf)
explains that SIBS is offered at three sites: Boston University, North
Carolina State University, and the University of Wisconsin-Madison.
Further details are given at the individual websites listed on the flyer.

For more information please see our program web sites:
