Foundation for Advanced Education in the Sciences

The FAES Graduate School at NIH offers nearly 200 courses and workshops each year at both the graduate and undergraduate levels. The FAES Graduate School operates with the approval of the Maryland Higher Education Committee, and many courses are accepted in transfer at other colleges and universities. Courses are open to members of the NIH community, other federal employees and the general public.

FAES courses and programs do not require a formal admission process. Courses are offered in the evenings and follow a semester calendar. Information regarding course registration, payment, dates and deadlines may be found in the Course Enrollment, Fees, and Policies section.

Bio-Trac biotechnology workshops are 3-5 day lecture and laboratory based trainings that are offered throughout the calendar year. Registration is completed on a rolling basis. For additional information, please view the Bio-Trac Website.
