It's time again to consider applying to the Minority Access to Research Careers (MARC) Program. If you are a U.S. citizen or permanent resident, have a 3.0 GPA, will have at least 3 semesters left at University of Arizona after the current spring semester, are interested in pursuing research and aspire a graduate degree in a biomedical field, then you certainly should apply. The benefits and opportunities are MANY and there is no prior research experience required.
The simple application and more information can be found at http://www.cbc.arizona.edu/marc/
The financial benefits are:
paid partial or full tuition
paid health insurance
$1800 per year to travel to science meetings
approximately $900 per month in stipend
The application deadline is Wednesday, February 1st.
If you'd like to discuss the possibilities or have ANY questions, PLEASE feel free to contact me via email (cjneal@email.arizona.edu) or by phone at 621-4667. I'd be very happy to talk with you.
Cindy Neal, Assistant Director
