Info Session: CU Boulder Interdisciplinary Quantitative (IQ) Biology Graduate Certificate

Join CU Boulder for an online information session about the Interdisciplinary Quantitative (IQ) Biology Graduate Certificate through CU Boulder’s BioFrontiers Institute. The certificate is designed for all students who are interested in working together to solve biological problems without disciplinary boundaries.

The certificate is earned in concordance with a PhD from one of CU Boulder’s academic departments. Students learn Interdisciplinary Quantitative skills, while also gaining in-depth knowledge of their field through their degree-granting PhD program with one of the university’s partner academic departments.

Through IQ Biology, students learn the essential competencies demonstrated by knowledgeable, and well-rounded researchers who collaborate effectively across disciplines. These competencies are attained through cross-departmental lab rotations, courses, interdisciplinary projects, outreach activities, and science engagement.

If you’d like to attend, register for the information session, which will take place on Tuesday, October 22, 2024 from 12 PM to 1 PM EDT.

During this session, Dr. Tom Cech (Director of IQ Biology) and Dr. Kristin Powell (Director of Interdisciplinary Education at BioFrontiers) will discuss the details of the program, resources/opportunities, and how to apply to the program. There will be a Q&A at the end of the session.
