Graduate Program Virtual Information Session
Join the University at Buffalo Biological Sciences Department on Tuesday, December 18, 2018, at 3:00 p.m for a graduate programs virtual information session. The webinar will feature two current graduate students, Nicole Wong and Haniam Maria, who will discuss their experiences as students in the program. We will discuss their research and experience within the department, life as a graduate student, and admissions requirements. This is a fantastic opportunity to ask questions of current students in our program, especially as deadlines for the program approach.
