Resources & Opportunities


There’s plenty to do outside of the classroom.

Advising: Health Professions Advisory Committee (HPAC)

The Health Professions Advisory Committee provides advising for students interested in applying to graduate school for medical-based careers. The committee — a group of dedicated faculty and staff — will help keep you on track with required courses, as well as evaluate and write committee letters to medical schools.

Summer Research: Pakula Biomedical Fellowship Program

A student does a dissection through a microscope. The Pakula Biomedical Fellowship Program allows a small number of students to work on campus for four or eight weeks over the summer. You’ll receive course credit, a stipend, and the chance to work one-on-one with a faculty member on developing and implementing a research project.

Off-campus research

There are many opportunities outside of Beloit for health sciences research, including the National Science Foundation’s Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU). Pathways to Science is one of many databases where students can find substantial research opportunities for the summer.
