Know your way around a lab before you land the job.

Emmanuel’s labs put industry-grade equipment in your hands early and often, including instrumentation uncommon at the undergraduate level. That hands-on training is built into your science education, giving you time to practice techniques, work through problems and become confident using equipment you’ll encounter in professional labs.

You can also earn resume-ready credentials that verify specific technical skills and instrumentation competencies. So when you walk into Longwood’s labs and life-science companies, you have more than a science degree. You can show them what you already know how to do.
