Postbac Program for Advanced Training Post baccalaureate, or postbac, programs offer advanced training for people who completed an undergraduate degree and plan to work toward a second bachelor’s degree or graduate degree. Through INBT’s Rosetta Commons Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU) Program, INBT began offering a new postbac program.

pursue further academic training. In addition to research, scholars participate in weekly lab meetings, attend seminars, and have “mini-thesis” meetings.

Similar to the REU program, scholars attend Rosetta Code School to learn the coding software and attend the Rosetta conference. Unlike the REU program, scholars learn what they can expect if they

This one-year program provides well-rounded training for scholars. By preparing them for advanced academic training, the program lays the groundwork for a successful academic future.

The program offers other services including preparation for the GRE, MCAT, or other graduate entrance exams, and assistance in preparing graduate school applications. Rosetta Commons is software for macroThere are also workshops to improve their molecular structure prediction and design. scientific writing skills, learn about science It can be used for vaccines and antivirals, protein and enzyme design, nanomaterials, ethics, and networking opportunities with PhDs, postdoctoral fellows, and faculty. and deep learning.
