DOW-MIT ACCESS Program

By Melinda Rose

The DOW-MIT ACCESS Program is a weekend-long symposium aimed to expose underrepresented minority students to the benefits of a graduate education in the aforementioned research areas. This 3rd annual event, taking place on MIT’s campus September 30th and October 1st, is an interactive and informative symposium that has proven to have a lasting impact on its past participants.  Hosted by the Departments of Chemistry, Chemical Engineering and Materials Science and Engineering at MIT.
 
Over half of our ACCESS alumni are now enrolled in graduate programs across the country. We hope you will encourage your students to apply to this program as we continue to work toward increasing the number of under-represented minorities in the fields of chemistry, chemical engineering and materials science.
 
Please forward this linked announcement to your colleagues and students:

Applications for the ACCESS Fall 2011 session are due July 1, 2011. All travel expenses, meals and hotel accommodations for students selected to participate in the ACCESS program will be paid by us. Participation neither obligates the student to apply for graduate study nor guarantees future consideration for study at MIT. ACCESS was made possible through the generous support of Dow Chemical Corporation. For more information visit http://access.mit.edu/ or email mit-access@mit.edu.
