On-Campus Innovations

Emmanuel is the only college in the country to boast a 12-story, 300,000 square-foot private research facility right on campus: Merck Research Laboratories - Boston.

Since Merck opened its doors on campus in October 2004, our students have gained access and opportunity to a world few undergraduates ever get to see, including:

• Merck Scholars Program - scholarships based on outstanding academic performance in the sciences by Emmanuel students
• Support for faculty-student research initiatives and student stipends for summer research projects
• The use of cutting-edge research equipment donated to the College by Merck Research Laboratories
• Emmanuel/Merck Joint Science Seminar Series - a monthly series designed to bring together leaders in the scientific community, Merck scientists and Emmanuel faculty and students
• Exciting internship opportunities in the fields of cancer treatment, Alzheimer's disease and obesity
