Since the Center’s establishment in 2009, NEIU has
made significant progress in recruiting undergraduate students to prepare them for research and health careers. Our overriding aim is to serve the diverse community of students for which NEIU is known. Our approachable advisors are keen to offer advice on school, career, and life issues as they impact educational and professional paths. The Center assists students in developing relationships with NEIU faculty, as well as local research-intensive institutions and government agencies. The Field Museum and the USDA are two of our partner institutions. At the Center, you will also find a selection of science magazines and articles on noteworthy scientific discoveries, as well as a science book
exchange, and a battery-recycling center. For comprehensive professional advising and a fun place to engage in science, this center is essential!
