Amgen Scholars U.S. Program Office regarding our 2013 program.  Given the honors and scholarship opportunities available at your institution, I believe that the Amgen Scholars Program, which provides exciting hands-on summer research opportunities in biotechnology and related science and engineering fields, could be of considerable interest to your students.

Applications for our ten U.S. host universities are now online, and I am writing to ask for your help in making information regarding the Amgen Scholars Program available to students before the application deadline, February 1, 2013 (with the exception of California Institute of Technology, for which the deadline is February 15, 2013). Eligibility requirements, as well as site-specific programming information, is available via www.amgenscholars.com.
