ENRICHMENT

During the course of the programs, weekly educational enrichment meetings will be held to discuss research-related skills and to familiarize the students with the areas of research at the OU Health Sciences Center beyond their assigned laboratory. Enrichment topics will also include career opportunities for PhD in biomedical sciences, preparation activities for graduate school, financial aid advising, etc. Students will also have opportunities to learn about all graduate programs at OUHSC and to visit laboratories in participating departments. These enrichment activities provide students scheduled times to be together and give students a broad picture of research at the graduate level.
In addition, social activities are scheduled for the evenings and weekends to enhance the overall experience of the students. Past events have included pool parties, barbecues, Oklahoma Redhawks Baseball Games, and trips to Frontier City Amusement Park.
