Recruitment and Retention

Recruitment and retention of top life sciences graduate students is a priority for BIO5. Ensuring easy access to graduate program information through the Graduate Studies in the Life Sciences website is one way the institute manifests that commitment. At the heart of this site is BioGate:  up-to-date information about faculty research interests, publications, and contact information that assists prospective graduate students in making matches with potential research mentors across the life sciences. Today, BioGate maintains information about nearly 700 life science faculty members at The University of Arizona.

As part of UA's Life Sciences Recruitment Weekend, BIO5 sponsors the annual Life Sciences Poster Session to introduce visiting prospective graduate students to the university's exciting life sciences research. The event showcases the interdisciplinary nature of the programs and the breadth of opportunities for graduate student, while providing and informal setting for stimulated research discussion among faculty and students.
