Join Nexus
The Eberly College of Science student organization Nexus (Network for Excellence in Undergraduate Science) is looking to recruit new members!

Students in Nexus establish meaningful connections with people across the Eberly College of Science and have opportunities to participate in networking and academic development opportunities. Participation in Nexus is a great way for students to gain leadership, event planning, and professional development experience.
