S.M.A.R.T

Microbiology and Cell Science students, wouldn't it be a S.M.A.R.T move if you earned FULL tuition, paid internships, cash award, employment placement, and a plethora of other benefits simply by being willing to enhance your research background?

We recently learned of a scholarship opportunity through Dr. Triplett, our very own Department Chair of Microbiology and Cell Science at University of Florida. 


This scholarship is open to any student pursuing an undergraduate or graduate degree in any of the STEM fields (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics)

All you must do is meet the eligibility requirements found HERE, and enjoy all the benefits found HERE!

Hello everyone,

 Just wanted to tell you all about an amazing event the NaviGATORS were invited to in order to provide you with all the information you need regarding our program. Join us on Saturday, October 8, 2011 from 12:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m. at Miami Dade College, Kendall Campus for the First Annual Miami-Dade Feria Para Aprender (Fair to Learn) 2011. This event is intended to promote education in our communities by providing our citizens with resources and information necessary to either start, or go back to school.  Find us at the Orange section where the NaviGATORS will be promoting science careers by providing feedback and information on how you can also be a Gator from home!

Don't forget to follow us on Twitter and Facebook!

It's a Luau!

Today was Club Rush at Miami Dade College North Campus. Karem, Ana, Willie and I met up with Dr. Triplett to take advantage of this event and inform MDC-North students about the transfer possibilities through this program. We had a great turn out and I was not surprised to see that many students enjoy the idea of being able to keep their demanding lifestyle in Miami, while still working towards receiving their BS degree from UF. Go gators! We were extremely proud today and elated to share all the information with the students, specially now that we've had some experience with the classes. Below are some pictures from today's event, enjoy!
