Position Summary

Pharmaceutical Candidate Optimization (PCO) and Nonclinical Safety/Veterinary Sciences (NCS/VS) at Bristol Myers Squibb are seeking highly motivated undergraduate students interested in a summer internship program that offers scientific research in a team-orientated and fast-paced environment. Students will be assigned an exciting project that provides a basis for an industry experience for learning new technologies, developing novel methodology, and/or analyzing literature/data to facilitate the generation of science-driven decisions for specific discovery and development programs. Projects will be offered in both discovery-facing functions and laboratories within PCO and development-facing laboratories and disciplines within NCS/VS.

The internship will include understanding of the hypothesis-driven investigations that enable scientists to present data that supports informed decision-making throughout the drug discovery and development process. This research directly contributes to greater potential success of drug candidates for patients. These studies can include, but are not limited to a) understanding toxicity associated with drug target , b) contributing to advancing new approaches to understand toxicity of new drug candidates b) use of artificial intelligence (AI) to support toxicology and other scientific functions, c) the determination of how a drug enters, moves through and exits the body (i.e. pharmacokinetics [absorption, distribution, metabolism and excretion]), d) bioanalytical methodology development and interpretation, e) determining appropriate drug formulations, technologies, and systems for administering a drug, and f) supporting projects related to animal welfare and laboratory animal medicine.

In addition, students will be mentored in development of critical thinking, risk/benefit assessment, multi-tasking capabilities, scientific writing and presentation skills, and building collaborative relationships. During the 10-week internship, students will be immersed in the drug discovery and development process and learn about the broader BMS organization. In addition, there will be opportunities to meet with numerous cross-functional team members within Research at BMS to explore the various roles and responsibilities that are integrated to develop successful drug discovery pipelines and bring pharmaceuticals through development.

For consideration, please submit application by November 15, 2024.

Key Responsibilities

  • Directly contribute to assigned project with manager support, which is aligned with PCO and NCS/VS responsibilities and student experiences/goals.

  • Active participation in informal networking/mentor meetings and formal symposiums.
  • Presentation of overall project and scientific findings at the conclusion of the internship.


Qualifications & Experience
