Individual membership in TriBeta is through the chapter on campusWe strive to enrich and extend but do not duplicate the primary requirements for the biology major. The national constitution provides a framework for our chapter activities, but we are free to function in accordance with our own needs and school philosophy. Our programs typically include, research and funding opportunities, guest speakers, reports of research by members and department faculty, field trips, maintenance of collections, community service and social gatherings.

About TriBeta

Bbbcrest.gif

Beta Beta Beta (TriBeta) is a society for students, particularly undergraduates, dedicated to improving the understanding and appreciation of biological study and extending boundaries of human knowledge through scientific research. Since its founding in 1922, more than 175,000 persons have been accepted into lifetime membership, and more than 430 chapters have been established throughout the United States and Puerto Rico.

TriBeta was founded in 1922 at Oklahoma City University--the Alpha Chapter--by Dr. Frank G. Brooks and a group of his students. The idea of an honor and professional society for biology students spread rapidly and by 1925, the society was a national organization. Biennial national conventions of student and faculty members began in that year and in 1930 the society journal, BIOS, began publication of student research, articles of interest to biologists and society news. As the society grew, it was divided into regional and district groups, each of which holds a convention annually. At the heart of every district and national meeting are student research papers presented in the style of graduate meetings. Awards are given for outstanding individual and chapter accomplishment.

The Colorado School of Mines Chapter

The Omicron Nu chapter of TriBeta was established at the Colorado School of Mines on March 26, 2008. There were 8 charter members and their names can be found on the framed Charter.

This chapter is dedicated to providing students with opportunities for research, internships, and jobs in biomedical sciences as well as providing information about biological careers in the Colorado region.
