Good Internship opportunities ?
I am currently an A-Level student exploring different career paths and considering fields like Microbiology and Biotechnology as my primary options, along with Food Science, Toxicology, and Environmental Science. While I haven’t made a final decision yet, I want to gain relevant experience to strengthen my university applications and improve my chances of securing scholarships. Where can I find high-quality research internships or other opportunities—either online or, if physical it should be based in Pakistan—that would help me achieve this?
Wah Cantt.I am in A-levels first year, Which universities offer the best scholarships for international students in biotechnology and microbiology
Hi, I am in A-level, AS, and I’m currently studying biology, physics and chemistry as my three main subjects and Urdu, as an optional subject. I want help with which path I should choose. I have done some research and I am inclined towards biotechnology, microbiology as my main options and toxicology, environmental sciences, and food signs or some other good options, but I also want to explore more and see what other career options would I have with the subject that I have chosen in my AS level. Right now, I am in search of good universities that will provide me really good scholarships for courses in microbiology or biotechnology. Suggest me some good countries where I can study microbiology or biotechnology and I can get a good high paying job

Should I choose Bioinformatics and what schoool to choose?
I read some articles that it is plausible to take bioinformatics even when a student didn't take biology classes (like me) BUT has a strong computer science background. As someone who wants to contribute to medical research, should I do it? I also see that Computational Biology / Bioinformatics curriculum is heavier on algorithm side. And what school should I choose? I am from Indonesia and looking for scholarship to study abroad.

How versatile and stable are the chemical engineering vs. bioengineering fields, and where do the two overlap??
I'm a student at Oregon State University currently majoring in Bioengineering. I'm considering switching to Chemical Engineering. So far, I have taken on one internship doing biochemistry research and I'm a licensed Pharm Tech. I know that I'm interested in Biochemistry and Chemistry, and I want to know which major is most applicable to pharmaceuticals or has the potential to expand my options should I find out I'm interested in non-pharma things. If you can, please also comment on any potential salary differences. Thank you for your help!

Which UCs in California have good medical connections to companies like pharmaceutical providers focused on using advanced technology?
I am an 11th grader in high school, and my focus in the job market is working in the medical field with the integration of advancing technology after graduating college. In college, I want to major in biotech. After graduating from four years of college, I would like to go to medical school for four years, but becoming a specialized doctor would take me two more years in medical school. In total, I will spend 10 years studying to prepare the right knowledge and understanding in the medical field. I would like to know anything about the medical field in pharmaceuticals so that I can prepare myself on what to do and what not to do before getting myself into this for 10 years. My skills are having a positive mindset to learn something new every day and an understanding of complex vocabulary in works of literature and songs.

BaghdadHow can I obtain a scholarship?
How can I obtain a scholarship to pursue a Master's degree in sciences, specifically in biotechnology or any other biology-related field? I'm not asking about the application process or requirements, but rather how I can be competitive. Which programs would be recommended for me, considering that my GPA is between 3.0 and 3.5? My current English level is B1, but I can reach C1 in a short time. Additionally, I would like to know if there are Master's scholarships that accept the Duolingo English Test, though I doubt it. I also have about 15 certificates from Coursera in various fields, with a focus on biology, and I have a passion for learning. Apologies for the lengthy message, and thank you.
