In partnership with Alverno College, Mount Mary University, and UW-Milwaukee, this 2-year program aims to help underrepresented students gain admission to and successfully complete graduate or medical school. The program offers an immersive experience with hands-on training in cancer research labs, access to research mentors, participation in community outreach, and career development.

This program connects undergraduates to mentors and research opportunities, making a future career in biomedical sciences more accessible. Students participate in a didactic core curriculum and weekly seminars featuring career development, goal setting, and discussion of ongoing research. Students also shadow basic scientists in their labs, participate in community events, and complete a mentored project related to cancer disparities in southeast Wisconsin.

The Cancer Center offers funding for a 1-2 year experience for up to eight recent college graduates who wish to delay graduate or professional school to serve as a clinical research professional in the Cancer Center鈥檚 Clinical Trials Office. Students receive training through an onboarding program, seminars, workshops, and shadowing experiences to enhance their understanding of cancer and clinical research.

This summer program comprises eight weeks of workshops and hands-on experience in the MCW Cancer Center's Clinical Trials Office and clinical practicums. The program recruits a diverse cohort of undergraduates and prepares them for careers as Clinical Research Professionals to provide financial support through employment as they transition to advanced degrees. 

In partnership with the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee (UW-M), the Cancer Center offers UWM students a learning experience aimed at training the next generation of high-performing, diverse cancer researchers. Beginning with mentor-pairing, students align their interests with a Cancer Center/cancer-focused research mentor and participate in an introductory semester-long, credit-granting undergraduate course that supports the development and writing of a fellowship grant proposal.

This annual symposium allows trainees an opportunity to showcase their research through oral presentations and poster sessions. The event includes a keynote address from a nationally renowned scientist with attendees comprised of high school, college, and graduate students as well as postdoctoral trainees.
