This module will help you begin the internship in the InnovaBio® lab. You will be unable to access the later modules and begin your internship until you have completed the tasks in this module.
The InnovaBio® lab offers a unique opportunity to participate in research as if you were working at a biotechnology company. The experience you gain in this lab will prepare you for success in industry and in reaching your educational goals. The InnovaBio® lab focuses on conducting experiments to solve real research problems.
While you will be conducting real experiments, this lab focuses on providing a supportive educational environment. The InnovaBio® staff are there to help you become the best employee and scientist you can be; take advantage of the experience they have to help you learn.
To maintain an atmosphere of supportive learning, we have two core philosophies:
The course will give you experience in a research-based internship program. You will need to complete all 100 hours of internship experience.
It is important that you spend at least 10 hours in the lab each week. Why? Because you will be a better intern (employee), learn more, stay current with project experiments and findings, and finish your internship hours in a semester’s time.
