Brandeis-India Science Scholars Program – still accepting applications
In collaboration with the Indian Institute of Science in Bangalore, India, the Office of Study Abroad and the Division of Science, Brandeis is offering an exchange opportunity for students interested in studying biology, chemistry, physics, math, materials, environmental science and computer science beginning in spring 2014. The undergraduate program offers many courses that will fulfill Brandeis major/minor requirements and a number of elective courses not offered at Brandeis that would complement any science curriculum.
The IISc is a vibrant campus with an active undergraduate student body and is a “living laboratory” for students interested in biology and environmental science. Students will live on campus with their Indian classmates and along with classes taught in English by Indian faculty, will have the opportunity to collaborate in research projects in one of the many labs on campus. Bangalore is a growing metropolitan city located in southern India and is known as the Silicon Valley of India, making it a unique destination for students in the sciences.
Following the spring semester program, select students from the IISc will come to Brandeis to participate in summer research projects with Brandeis faculty.
Applications will be accepted on a space available basis until October 15th! For more information visit the program website here or contact Amber Thacher in the Office of Study Abroad.
