This summer BioWorks is sponsoring Josh Gerovac, who is majoring in Horticulture Production and Marketing, with a minor in Plant Biology at Purdue University. Fall of 2011 kicks off Gerovac's senior year."I enjoy having the freedom within the internship to perform my own research," says Gerovac. In his free time, he enjoys spending time with his two dogs, working out, and is currently training for a Triathlon called the Boiler Man Purdue. 

 

The Purdue Horticulture & Landscape Architecture Department Summer Internship Program has been active since 2005. Interns involved in the program, perform research and experiments and also work in the greenhouse partaking in activities such as scouting for insects. The entire internship allows students an opportunity to perform scientific research projects on their own. This benefits the students because they learn first-hand the detail required for scientific method and acquire an appreciation for their work. 

 

This summer Gerovac is conducting tests with BioWorks products and has developed an appreciation for the company mission and eco-friendly approach. BioWorks is proud to be a part of supporting young horticulturists in their research ventures.
