Laboratory Experience

Hajim students work alongside our faculty and researchers using state of the art equipment in specialized laboratories. In these labs, students get hands-on experience using the same equipment professionals use in the field—preparing them for careers in a variety of industries, as well as giving them the experience they need to pursue their own research in a higher education setting.

Explore our Labs

See firsthand the types of equipment you’ll be using in these virtual lab tours. This is just a small sample of labs available to Hajim undergraduate students.
