To give students an idea of what to expect in regards to potential lab experiences, below are a few of the previous lab experiences that were offered with this program:
- Studying the molecular mechanisms behind pollination
- An introduction to the awesome power of yeast genetics
- Learning different crop science strategies to cope with climatic variables
- Engineering the microbiome to make controlled aquatic systems safer
Past participants of the program have indicated their favorite part of their week spent with us was conducting their experiments and being exposed to college level research. Students in this program can expect to learn about topics and research they may not have gotten the opportunity to experience yet as it serves as a great introduction to agricultural science. At the culminating event at the end of our week, the students will present their findings and learning outcomes gained from their lab experience to their student peers, faculty and staff, and any guests.
