All of the Organizations listed below that have already updated their sites for 2009, or offer opportunities on an annual basis will be indicated by a (2009) after the co-op link
This website has selected co-ops/internships from the larger Biology & Biotechnology Co-op Opportunities on the Web website that offer experience in bioinformatics, genomics, computational biology or proteonomics
In addition to the valuable experience and good pay that a Co-op or Internship will give you, very many of the Opportunities listed on this website also provide Travel Reimbursement, Housing and Meals. So, don't let concerns about living expenses or the location of an organization posted on this website prevent you from checking out an exciting and challenging Co-op or Internship position!! If travel support, housing and meals are provided, this information will almost always be included in the details about the Co-op or Internship that can be found by clicking on the co-op website next to the organization's name and location.
Do
you want to Co-op/Intern anytime soon?
1. You'll need to get your resume up to date.
2.
RIT Students - You may also want to consider taking
