Fourth Annual Declaration Celebration

First year graduate students at Albert Einstein are responsible for beginning their coursework as well as completing three laboratory rotations. These laboratory rotations allow students to explore their particular research interests while taking advantage of the breadth of science available to them. At the end of the first year, each student is asked to declare the laboratory of his or her choice. The laboratory they choose is where they will do their thesis research for the remainder of their graduate career. Today we are officially welcoming the first year class into their labs and celebrating the start of their thesis work.

Sponsored by The Graduate Division and the Einstein Alumni Association
