Rising Tide

Rising Tide is a research techniques training program. PCC undergraduate participants will receive training from Caltech graduate students or postdoctoral scholars. The training will focus on a few primary research areas, including synthetic and analytical chemistry, computational or theoretical chemistry, and biochemistry. Additionally, the program will emphasize science communication, professional development, and team-building as core parts of its curriculum. Participants will receive a research techniques training certificate at the conclusion of the program.

The program encourages applications from first generation college students, educationally or financially disadvantaged students, and geographically underrepresented students. This program accepts applications from everyone. This program is open only to students with little to no prior research experience and with a strong interest in Chemistry & Biology.

The Rising Tide program is generously supported by on-campus partners, including:

• The Chemistry and Chemical Engineering Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (CCE DEI) Committee Fund
• The Biology and Biological Engineering Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (BBE DEI) Committee Fund
• Carina Initiatives through Caltech's office of Inclusion, Diversity, Equity, and Accessibility
