Three 2024 grads show what can happen with curiosity, internships, good challenges and support from their Augustana success team.
A group of 11 Augustana College juniors were selected to take part in the paid, full-time, 10-week experience at the Texas Medical Center in Houston this summer.
A grant from the Roy J. Carver Charitable Trust will allow Augustana College faculty and students to engage in next-generation DNA sequencing research.
