MICROBIOLOGY ACHIEVEMENT THROUGH RESEARCH AND VALUABLE EXPERIENTIAL LEARNING
The Microbiology Achievement through Research and Valuable Experiential Learning, or MARVEL Program, started in 2021 with the goal of supporting the academic success and building community for undergraduate students in the Microbiology program at UNL. Currently, the MARVEL Program organizes two events a year including a workshop and the UNL Microbiology Research Symposium during each fall semester. These events are open to all Microbiology-affiliated faculty, staff, students, and alumni regardless of their departmental affiliations.
By participating in these events, students learn about the breadth of Microbiology as a discipline, connect with others in their interest areas, and begin to seek out research opportunities on campus.
Additional funding provided by the generous donations to the UNL Microbiology Excellence Fund through the University of Nebraska Foundation.
