The University of Wisconsin-Madison will host the annual Biosciences Opportunities (BOPs) preview weekend on September 21-24, 2017. This is an all-expenses paid opportunity for prospective graduate students to learn about opportunities in biological science graduate programs at UW-Madison. UW-Madison is a world-class university with many opportunities for graduate study. Approximately 146 programs offer masters degrees and 110 programs offer doctorate degrees. UW-Madison is one of the largest bioscience research institutions in the nation; ranking in the top 20 of all research programs worldwide for NIH funded biomedical research. It is a leader in stem cell research and in the top 10 for bioscience research in the nation. The preview weekend exposes prospective students to the breadth of bioscience research being done on our campus while also creating a personalized visit including individual time with faculty, lots of exposure to current graduate students, campus resources, student groups and a workshop on applying to UW-Madison.
