Student volunteer program for AusBiotech 2013 now open
Applications are now open for the annual AusBiotech Student Volunteer Program at AusBiotech’s national conference, this year to be held in Brisbane (30 October-1 November).
The Student Volunteer Program facilitates the active engagement of selected students with conference delegates. The participating students have the opportunity to improve their communication, networking skills and experience by working behind the scenes of a major industry event.
The program, proudly supported by AusBiotech, aims to give students a development experience that will assist their transition to employment in the biotechnology industry.
Applications close Friday 30 August 2013. See the full program details at http://ausbiotechnc.org/student-program.
