About the Biomedical Science Careers Program (BSCP)
BSCP, an independent charitable non-profit organization, is housed in the Harvard Medical School Office for Diversity Inclusion and Community Partnership (DICP). The BSCP was established in 1991 with the aim of increasing the representation of underrepresented minority and disadvantaged individuals in all facets of science and medicine while helping health care institutions, biopharma/biotechnology firms, educational institutions, professional organizations and private industry members meet their need for a diverse workforce. The primary objective of all BSCP activities is to identify, inform, support, and provide mentoring for academically outstanding students/fellows, particularly from groups such as Black/African-American, Hispanic/LatinX and American Indian/Alaska Native, Disabled and LGBTQ.
Organizational Mission: BSCP inspires members of every race, ethnic background, gender and financial status to ask why not me? We meet the student where they are in their journey, provide a community to network and connect, and with encouragement, support and guidance, help them achieve their potential in pursuit of biomedical science and other science-related careers.
