Get Involved in the IGERT

IGERT traineeships are offered on a periodic basis, as new positions become available.  These positions are typically advertised within the IU program: applications are solicited from interested students (with supporting letters from their faculty mentors), and then reviewed by an internal IU panel.  Watch this space for upcoming IGERT opportunities.

In addition, even at times when no IGERT fellowships are available, other IU Biology graduate students may opt to become IGERT ‘affiliates’. Affiliates may participate in all the activities open to an IGERT trainee, including journal clubs and seminar participation.  Affiliation with the IGERT program can also aid in obtaining future IGERT funding, when new fellowship opportunities become available.
