Student Corner
Extracurricular activities are an essential part of a well-rounded education! Our students are active in various non-academic activities that enhance their Georgetown Biotechnology experience. Whether serving the community or getting together for a day out in D.C., we are always ready to embark on an exciting journey!
Highlights
Our beloved Class President, Nick Gravina, MS Biotechnology Candidate, May ’24, takes on Capitol Hill on Monday, April 29, 2024! Always passionate about science and space exploration, Nick will speak to congress on the importance of funding scientific education, including opportunities for underprivileged and underrepresented groups and individuals. Alongside famed science teacher, Bill Nye and other notable scientists, Nick will reiterate the importance of funding for scientific initiatives primarily in space exploration and a major part of that is the NASA budget. You don’t have to be a tenured professor or a clinician with 40 years of experience to have an impact on Capitol Hill. We are so proud of you, and will be cheering you on, Nick!
