鈥淲hat I have enjoyed most about my experience in biology at Valpo is being a part of the research intensive program. This introduced me to the various biology research labs on campus and allowed me to do undergraduate research for four years!鈥

鈥淚 can confidently say I wouldn鈥檛 be where I am today if I hadn鈥檛 attended Valpo. The small class sizes and small research groups provided me with 1:1 mentoring from professors and plenty of opportunities to gain valuable research experience... During my four years at Valpo, I gained much more confidence, motivation, and passion for my field than I ever anticipated, thanks to the inspiration and support of my classmates and professors.鈥
