This project serves to disseminate material generated by the reading initiative of City Tech. Please feel free to contribute, discuss and take part.
NSF S-STEM āAdvancing Student Futures in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematicsā
The School of Arts and Sciences of New York City College of Technology (City Tech) has a National Science Foundation (NSF) S-STEM grant, “Advancing Student Futures in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics”. This grant supports students in the Applied Chemistry, Chemical Technology (Chem Tech), Computer Science (CSC), Biomedical Informatics (BiB) and Applied Mathematics programs. The scholarship is based on financial need and academic merit.
My Clubs
BioMedical Informatics Student Club
The Biomedical Informatics (BIB) Student club exists to advocate, provide support and services to fellow Biomedical Informatics undergraduate students here at New York City College of Technology. We aim to assist students in gaining opportunities and discovering information that is relevant and beneficial towards the degree requirement of the program. Through the expansion of knowledge, workshops, field trips and invited speakers, we hope to give students the option to network and attain skills required for classes including the internship. This is a student-run club which is advised by faculty members, Professor Eugenia Giannopoulou and Professor Mai Zahran.
