Welcome to S.A.L.S.
What is S.A.L.S. and what is its purpose?
S.A.L.S. is the Student Associations of Laboratory Scientists. Its purpose is to provide members with helpful information regarding careers in the laboratory sciences. S.A.L.S. and its guest speakers provide information on graduate school programs, job offerings, internships, resume writing, interview skills, as well as both general and specific information about different fields of study and employment. Its main goal is to prepare its members for their continuing education and their employment search in the laboratory fields.
What are the goals for S.A.L.S. ?
To host guest speakers who will share their knowledge and insight about their professions or areas of expertise/study; to tour off-campus laboratories, to develop an employer and job opportunity database; to provide workshops which give practical skills in the job seeking process; to host a conference with its parent organization NCSAM on campus for anyone who is interested in the chosen topic; and, to provide a forum to exchange news and ideas.
